    password widget to for linking to widget galleries help

      Hi i was just wondering. is there any way to take the password widget and link it to a composition light box widget with a gallery in side? i know it says link to text in the drop down menu . I am wondering if tis a hyperlink, or a link to file.

       

      this is what i am trying to build. i am taking the Lightbox widget, have someones name above it. when that person hovers over or clicks on there name or thumbnail image, it takes them to the display widget from the Lightbox. from there they can look at a slide show of the images they want, or go directly to the image icon and click buy to there image.  which takes the link to the file for download there images.

       

      so ill be using the password widget, and the link to file hyperlink which allows you to take a text or image and link it to a folder. but the hard part is getting the password widget to work with the concept.

       

      unless the protections is in the adobe BC store that i should be using instead.

          Hi

           

          If I understand correct , you want to include the secure zone login to lightbox container. You can do that by inserting the login box html content in lightbox target container, so that when trigger is clicked , users will get the pop- up for secure login.

          If this is not what you are looking for then, you would need to insert the login box on page as a page content and then on landing page you can insert the lightbox with slide images where users once login will be directed to that page and view the images in lightbox mode.

           

          Thanks,

          Sanjit

            yes thats correct. with the current password widget i dont think i would be able to do so. but it sounds like the secure zones are what i would need. you you say html link right?  yeah the idea came from me when i was a user with smug mug.com, and i am i am with a hosting called instaproofs.com again great services. but i have to upgrade my account with them. to allow 300 depi high resolution files to be download  for a client. thats why i was thinking of merging the two together. i know how to work with basic html and basic code. i took web site design 1 in class as part of my photography degree. so muse i love so much. because with dreamweaver it was complicated especially with cs4. where dream weave galleries were taken out.  so by designing my own site with muse and bc. i think i come up with a great amazing site. tricky to do so cpet i am not much of a designer.  right now. i have two instaproof accounts one for high resolution files and one for low resolution files. i for one would like to combine the two together under one gallery . designing web sites will be a side thing for me, a minor as my main focus is photography. i am self teaching myself because it keeps me busy and i enjoy building sites when i am not doing photo shoot. the other reason is i would like to upload files from any device. my current host is mainly desktop only. yes they say they can view from any device. .

             

            so yes is the answer to your question

              now i do want to add the link to file option. i do have a wondering question about it. the files dont sit on the bc server do they after site is published. instead they sit on my desktop right ? so when a client click on the text or image and its linked to the files to download it pulls it up as a zip file right? yeah i am using google drive and such kinda hard to do so, not bad. for high resolution files. but again for this to work its a combination of ideas i am wanting. and evenly offer it to clients to.

               

              so its Lightbox gallery, secure zone, link to high and low resolution files and then last is check out . i do have Paypal and part of this. so inserting  a paypal button before the link to file and before the client can download the files. thats the last part.  a challenge i am willing to take on.  again thank  you.

                What you can do here , is add the contents from Muse and then from BC end , include the pages in secure zone.

                The files that you would add will only be accessible when user will land to that page where they can download/view the contents.
