Protect uploads

Beschreibung

The uploads directory is where the files of the WordPress library are stored. Unfortunelty, this directory is not protected. A person who wants to see all your library could list it instantly going to : http://yourwebsite/wp-content/uploads . This plugin will hide the content by adding an index.php file on the root of your uploads directory or by setting an htaccess which will return a 403 error (Forbidden Access).

  • Depending on your server setting, the htaccess option could be disabled.

Available languages :

  • English
  • Français
  • Español
  • Italian (thanks to Marko97)

Installation

  1. Upload protect-uploads folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‚Plugins‘ menu in WordPress

Note : GD library is needed and being able to create a .htaccess file in uploads directory.

This is useful when you are lazy to edit the .htaccess I'm very happy with this plugin. (Funny how some stupid people are trying to pin the blame on this plugin for the hacking damage caused by their poor web server security. They were completely deceived by hackers.)
