Hello
I just installed nextcloud latest version on my-nextcloud-site.com, only one account to upload and get link to share on my-content-site.com
By default, anyone can download if they have nextcloud public share links
My idea:
my-content-site.com use CMS like Wordpress, Datalife Engine, Drupal… has member group: Admin, Vip, Normal and Guest (not-logged)
I want only logged member of VIP and Admin group on my-content-site.com can download nextcloud public-share links.
Any solution?

Everybody can download files with a public share. The share is public. 
But nobody can guess a link. But e.g. e-mails with public shares are a security risk.
I think there is no connector to CMS like Wordpress, …
Also you do not use your member groups with a ldap server.
https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/latest/admin_manual/configuration_user/user_auth_ldap.html
Bu you can restrict shares e.g. to:
- users in nextcloud
- public users who knows a password (with multiple shares you can use multiple passwords)
- guest uses with app Guests watch video
- create “restricted” users (e.g. for each member group), ask for details
I think i would exchange files with your groups with Htaccess directly on the webspace.
Or you can use the Tiny File Manager for more upload/download features.

Thank you.
tinyfilemanager only hosted on local, not external servers. and direct link, not hashed. I hosted file on multi-servers, need FTP external servers
htaccess is easy to bypass, they will share my link to other sites.
Can I add code into one or more files (I guest file nextcloud/apps/files_sharing/public.php)
This code will connect to database of my-content-site.com and check:
- If username and password and group are matched → Allow download.
- Else → Forbidden
Can you hint me the files to edit as above idea?
Thank you
