  Is it possible to limit who can download pdfs and pictures from my site to those who are logged in to it?

  Oh yes, or would it be possible to know who was downloading stuff from the site, does that appear in the stats, or just that stuff has been looked at?

  1 – Password protect the post that you are linking to the downloads from.

  2 – It’s not possible with the stat system we have here. Best you can do is find where people are coming from when they visit your site. (ie referrers.)
