Tracking Amazon S3 Downloads Tracking

[Artisantopia]

HI! I’m using the Lightbox Ultimate plugin to give my private membership site (OptimizePress) users links to download large videos hosted on Amazon S3 using this shortcode:

[wp_lightbox_anchor_text_secure_s3_file_download name=”video.mp4″ bucket=”videos” text=”Download the Video”]

I’d like to track the downloads so I can see which users have downloaded which videos. Is there a way to do this with the plugin, or perhaps somehow integrate with your Download Monitor Plugin:

Thank you

Lightbox Ultimate doesn’t really “download” videos, it just plays them. As such, I think the question you are really asking is: Can I track the number of times my videos are viewed?

The short answer is “no.” Lightbox does not have any such statistical capability.

You could just use Google Analytics, to determine which pages your members visit. If each page only has one lightbox, you’d get some kind of (but not precise) idea.

Are these private or public files in your amazon s3 account?
