Hi, is there a way of 'securing' the file attachment download link that K2 has for dealing with file attachments?

Basically I don't want files on a K2 item being leached and bandwidth consumed by bots on a freely downloadable file, looking maybe for including ReCaptcha or similar.

Thanks

Hello Chris,

Recaptcha is already being used in the comment forms.
You could implement a simple JS scirpt to show hide the download link in your overrides.

Thanks Krikor,

Next question of course is any examples of how to implement that? :)

You can use this as a starting point
medium.com/@kerrywall/building-a-simple-quiz-with-jquery-eb76c6062806
and use show(), hide() or toggle() in order to toggle the visibility of the link.

Thanks again for your great support Krikor!

You 're welcome Chris :)
