Workflow Diagram
1

Upload Your PDFs to DocFortify

Instead of uploading PDF files directly to Thinkific, first upload your workbooks, guides, templates, and supplementary materials to DocFortify, where they'll be prepared with security measures to prevent unauthorized sharing.

2

Configure Security Settings

Set up your preferred security measures for each PDF, including dynamic watermarking with student information, email verification requirements, and viewing limitations designed to prevent unauthorized distribution.

3

Generate Secure PDF Links

Create secure access links for each of your protected PDF files. These links will require students to verify their email address, ensuring only legitimate enrollees can access your valuable course materials.

4

Add Links to Your Thinkific Course

Insert your secure PDF links into Thinkific lessons where you would normally provide PDF downloads. When students click these links, they'll be directed to your protected content in DocFortify's secure viewer.

5

Monitor Usage and Engagement

Track how students interact with your protected PDFs through DocFortify's analytics dashboard. Identify viewing patterns, engagement metrics, and potential unauthorized sharing attempts to continuously improve your content.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about using DocFortify with Thinkific.

How do I use DocFortify with my Thinkific courses? keyboard_arrow_down

Instead of uploading PDF files directly to your Thinkific course, you'll first upload them to DocFortify. Then, you'll create secure access links for each PDF and add those links to your Thinkific lessons as text links, buttons, or embedded in your lesson content. When students click these links, they'll access your protected content through DocFortify's secure viewer, which verifies their identity and prevents unauthorized sharing.

Do I need to modify my existing Thinkific course structure? keyboard_arrow_down

No, you don't need to change your course structure. DocFortify works alongside your existing Thinkific setup. You'll simply replace standard PDF download links with secure DocFortify links in your course lessons. Your course organization, content delivery, and student experience remain largely unchanged, except now your PDF content is protected against unauthorized sharing.

How do I control access to different PDFs for different courses? keyboard_arrow_down

You have complete control over which PDFs appear in each course by deciding where to place the secure links. For example:

  • Place beginner resources only in your introductory courses
  • Include advanced templates only in premium courses
  • Add bonus materials only to specific course modules
  • Create different resource sets for different course bundles

Since you control where the links appear in your Thinkific course structure, you can ensure students only see links to the PDFs they should have access to based on their enrollment.

What will the student experience be like? keyboard_arrow_down

Students will have a streamlined experience accessing your protected content. When they click a secure link in your Thinkific course, they'll be directed to the DocFortify secure viewer. First-time users will need to verify their email address (a one-time process that takes seconds). After verification, they'll immediately see your PDF content with their personal information watermarked on it. The viewing experience is browser-based and works on any device without requiring special software.

How do I handle student refunds or unenrollments? keyboard_arrow_down

When a student requests a refund or unenrolls from your course, you can manually revoke their access to protected PDF content through the DocFortify dashboard. The system provides you with access logs for each document, allowing you to monitor usage patterns and disable specific user access when needed. This ensures that only current, paying students maintain access to your valuable materials.
