Newbie1978 Posted January 12, 2004 Share Posted January 12, 2004 I'm working on a site that will ultimately be a wholesale division of our retail site. Basically, I don't want anyone to have access to the catalog unless I set them up with an account and password. I'm having trouble finding something that would make this possible. I thought I found one here: http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,999 BUT, I tried downloading it and opening it and nothing would work. I've not used contributions before, is there something I need to do to actually use this contribution? (please forgive my ignorance). Or does anyone have a more useful suggestion on how I could go about doing this? Any help would be most appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 12, 2004 Share Posted January 12, 2004 Does your web hosting company provide any "directory protect" function? most of them do. check it in the control panel. it will be alot easier than installing a contribution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
