Purpose of Mod
This mod is intended for those with open access to their TNG site but who wish to disable access to media and other selected files for non-registered users. It allows access to the selected files only for logged-in users. If a non-logged-in user tries to access the relevant file they will see a template-formatted page that informs them they are not authorised to view that file and a links to the Home page and Previous page.
NOTE: The mod does not currently inhibit access to PDF media
