I administer a site for a Car Club [-link-] who want to have an electronic version of their Club Magazine available only to subscribed members (not site members) who can all use the same username/password combo (or password only) to download it in .pdf format

Been scratching my head on how to do it in e107 but failing ATM so does anyone have any idea, other than password protecting the .pdf itself and making it publicly available.

Please bear in mind that most of the Club Members are of an age where there not computer literate

Why not put it into a separate directory which is password protected through an entry in .htaccess?

Use a standalone page, shouldn't take too long as it is already using ur theme.

Ended up simply password protecting the .pdf itself as it was much simpler and cleaner.
