I know this has been talked before but there must be a way to protect posts attachments from any visitor that knows the url. At least force him to register or something.

Recently i have done some work for a script and posted it as attachment in a wpForo forum and after i while i found the attachment link posted in several place.

Thanks

Searching i found this:

https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/194820/prevent-image-from-being-accessible-via-url-as-a-post

for Wordpress images and attachments. Maybe it could be modified to work for wpForo attachments ?

Or do something like that ?

@anonymous20

the wpForo developers will find some workaround for this in future updates. I've already let them know.

In case you want to say thank you !)
We'd really appreciate and be thankful if you leave a good review on plugin page. This is the best way to say thank you to this project and support team.

@sofy Thank you.

I'm looking for a quick and simple solution for this, something like "if a visitor is pointing to an attachment link, redirect him to something else".
