Dear Aldo,
The attachment has a meta “is_private” which you could use somewhere in your template. Not sure if you are looking for this.
<?php if(get_post_meta($file_id, 'is_private', true) == true) && $user_id == '1'){ echo 'Allowed'; } else{ echo 'not allowed' }; ?>
With the ‘private_media_url_by_array’ filter you can retrieve the download URL by file_id or by passing the file array.

Hi Stephan
Not exactly.
When a user clicks on the link to download a file (i.e. https://domain.com/download/file/2374/) i would like to hook in before the download is returned to apply my own check.
Aldo
Dear Aldo,
Ah ok, sorry no there is no way currently.

Hi Stepahn
I looked a bit deeper.
Is there a way to retrieve the current post ID in this hook: PWPF_handle_private_download
Thanks
Aldo
Hi Aldo,
I hope you understand that I can’t do every individual request.
If more people have the same request I can do a change to the plugin.
How many installations is the plugin installed on your side, and do you need it for every installation?

Hi Stephan
I understand 🙂
It‘s just one Installation.
If I could just get the page ID from the page the the Download is called.
Maybe pass it as additional parameter in the rewrite?
Or can I grab it via get_post_meta mentioned in the beginning to get the post Id the attachment belongs to?
The rest I can figure out.
Best, Aldo
Dear Aldo,
The attachment is in the url /download/()/.
<?php $file = get_query_var('pwpf_file'); ?>

Thanks!
Wouldn’t be possible to pass the post id in the query as well?

Hi Stephan
Ok, I managed to grab the post id. Maybe there is a nicer way to do that, but it does the job.
In pwf_hooks.php
After line 157:
global $post;
$src_post_id = $post->ID;
return $is_private == true ? get_bloginfo( 'url' ) . '/download/file/'.$file['ID'].'/'.$src_post_id.'/' : $file['url'];
After line 471 add:
$query_vars[] = 'pwpf_postid';
Change line 479 (before the change above) to:
add_rewrite_rule('download/file/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$','index.php?pwpf_file=$matches[1]&pwpf_postid=$matches[2]','top');
And add:
add_rewrite_tag('%pwpf_postid%','[^&]+');
Now in PWPF_handle_private_download() you can get the var: get_query_var(‘pwpf_postid’)
Best,
Aldo
Dear Aldo,
Thanks for sharing.
If other people need this, please see Aldo his solution.
