Just letting everyone know, I have been given the go ahead to develop a plugin that will allow a user to upload files to the s2member-files secure directory from within a post. I haven't started working on it yet, but I plan to have it finished by the end of the weekend.

I'm going to submit it to the WordPress plugin repo and will notify everyone on this thread when it is ready.

If you have any suggestions or thoughts, I welcome them.

That's great, Lew! I will let you know if I have any ideas for it.

That will be good for people who want to share confidential docs.

Well, the first version of this plugin is available on my site: http://lewayotte.com/plugins/s2member-secure-file-uploader/ ... I've submitted it to WordPress for approval, will add it to the repository as soon as they approve it.

FYI, the client only paid for 5 hours worth of work, so it's not as feature-rich as I'd like to see.

Great. Thanks for sharing it, Lew!

I installed and tried it, works fine. Rated it and voted "works" over at WordPress.org.

Haven't tried it, but it's sure to come in handy.

Will this plugin allow a secure download too? I have a client who wants to allow their clients to upload and download files securely. Each member has to be totally individual. i.e. they can only see files that they have uploaded and have permission to download

kdawes01,

All this plugin does is upload a file to the secure directory of s2member and insert the proper shortcode for people to download the file. The ability to download files from a secured location (requiring someone to be logged in) is already available through s2member.
