Locked downloads

Downloads whose access level the visitor lacks are hidden. With Show locked downloads (options or menu item) they appear with a lock and a link to log in. Password-protected downloads always stand in the list, with the link Enter password.

The page of a download

The page of a download with description, details, button and category
Description, details, button and the categories of the download.

If a download appears in several categories, its page tells search engines that the address under the main category is the authoritative one (canonical). So it does not count twice.

Addresses

With search engine friendly URLs switched on, the addresses look like this:

    Page of a download: …/price-lists/price-list-2026 File: …/price-lists/price-list-2026/file Password form: …/price-lists/price-list-2026/unlock

    The option Remove IDs from URLs (Options → Integration) decides whether the number of the download stands in the address. The alias of a download must be unique per category.
