Accessing Password Protected Files

    Hi,

    I currently setup a large database of all our jobs data. This data is filtered and shown to a customer in a table when they log in. They further filter the data to find the job they are looking for. Then they click a link in the table to go to a job report pdf.

    These 100s of pdfs are uploaded with an FTP. I wish to password protect all these files but I don’t want the customer to keep having to enter the password.

    The login I use for them to access the table is a login I wrote because it must perform specific actions. It will not likely transfer well to the pdf login (which is through wordpress).

    Is it possibly to access the password protected pdfs, without typing the password, ONLY through a special link in my code?

    If they manually type the address in the address bar I want a unique password to come up that only I know.

    If they use their login for the table and get to the link to their file, that link will not require the unique password.

    Is this doable?
