S2 member Nextgen gallery

I have a site with s2member and nextgen gallery, I want to protect the content under the nextgen gallery «gallery» folder. I have tried this code from Cristián Lávaque to change the s2member protected folder:

` <?php
add_filter(‘ws_plugin__s2member_files_dir’, ‘ngg_gallery_directory’);
function ngg_gallery_directory() {
return ‘http://mysite.com/wp-content/gallery/’;
}
?>`

Then I have added a «download» button in the gallery page:
<a class="download-link" href="<?php echo $image->imageURL ?>">Download</a>

Following the instructions of S2member > Download options > Basic downloads restrictions, I can link to any protected file using:
http://mysite.com/?s2member_file_download=example-file.zip

So, the download button now look like this:

<a class="download-link" href="http://mysite.com/?s2member_file_download=<?php echo $image->imageURL ?>">Download</a>

The final URL looks like this:

http://mysite.com/?s2member_file_download=/gallery01folder/gallery01image_01.jpg

But I get an 404 error from s2member:

404: Sorry, file not found. Please contact Support for assistance.`

Surely I’m doing something wrong, I have uploaded the same folder with the files to the s2member-files folder and I can download them, so the folder-changing-hack is not working, I guess.

Can you please help me to protect the «gallery» folder?

Thanks!

I don’t use NextGen Gallery, but the thing that’s confusing me here is that you’ve apparently set up the ~/gallery/ folder to be protected, and then used code that links to a folder called ~/gallery01folder/ Surely they need to be the same?

The s2member_file_download equals to the protected folder, by default it is s2member-files folder, located in wp-content/plugins, so this:
http://mysite.com/?s2member_file_download=/gallery01folder/gallery01image_01.jpg
becomes this:
http://mysite.com/wp-content/plugins/s2member-files/gallery01folder/gallery01image_01.jpg

I want to protect the gallery folder located in wp-content, just that. As I said before it works well when the content is in the default folder.

Thanks for your help!

Have you tried using the full URL?

I have confirmed that the «change your protected folder via s2hack.php» code does not work for me.

This is the code I’m using:
```
<?php
add_filter('ws_plugin__s2member_files_dir', 'ngg_gallery_directory');
function ngg_gallery_directory() {
return ABSPATH.'/wp-content/gallery/'.((stripos(PHP_OS, "win") === 0 && stripos($_SERVER["SERVER_SOFTWARE"], "apache") === false) ? "/app_data" : "");
}
?>
```
I also have tried return 'http://mysite.com/wp-content/gallery/';

I have uploaded an entire gallery to the s2member-files folder and everything works, I got the JavaScript confirmation prompt and the file is downloaded to my computer. I have a large number of galleries in the NextGen gallery folder, so, it is not viable to move them to the s2member-files folder.

Please help!

@kts915 yes, I have used the full URL, as I said, the protection works just fine when the images are in the s2member-files folder but I get the 404 error if I try to dowload from the gallery folder.

Shouldn’t the code be:
return 'http://mysite.com/wp-content/plugins/gallery/';

Nope, the folder is inside wp-content, not inside wp-content/plugins. At the same level of uploads and plugins.
