OK, I think I am misunderstanding the how the can_view_hidden setting works. I grant this permission to a user group. Then I hard code the link in a post like this:

PHP Code:

[COLOR=Blue][I][U][B][URL="http://uber-goober.com/forums/local_links.php?catid=1&linkid=3891"]AC020 - Investment Management[/URL][/B][/U][/I][/COLOR] 


When a user in this group clicks on the hyperlink created by the above code, I expect them to be able to download the file. But they get this error message instead:

Sorry - there is nothing here to show you (no permission, all entries hidden, etc)

How is this supposed to work? I don't want my users doing searches, I want every link to be hard coded in a post.
