Pre-sale questions about WP Media Folder

Does the WP Media Folder have a feature for making certain documents and/or folders only available to logged-in users? I want to make some documents on my website Public (available to anyone) and some documents Private (available only to users that are logged in). On the Document Downloads page, only public documents would be visible. When the user logs in, the private documents would also become visible. Is this possible with WP Media Folder? If not, could it be accomplished with additional plugins and if so, which one(s)? Thank you for your timely reply.

Hi,

Thanks for contacting us here about this extension.

I'm sorry, this feature is not implemented yet. Now you can set the permission for users to access in backend only.

Hope it helps!
Cheers,

Hi,

That's why we have created the WP File Download plugin which does exactly what you want https://www.joomunited.com/wordpress-products/wp-file-download

I saw that, but I like the way the WP Media Folder manages the the media in the back end. Can the WP Media Folder be used at the same time with WP File Download? Are there conflicts when one uses them at the same time? Or are there benefits to using them together?
