Ephesians 4:14

Hi Mark,

plug-in has been working great.  I am wondering how to protect against people directly downloading photos.  eg entering the direct URL to the photo.

I see there is a way using htaccess,  though I think there might be a problem as my directory is outside the public_html (as you suggested for setup).

I have tried putting the htaccess file in my TNG directory,  though it doesn't work.  I get the feeling its because its outside the public_html dir.  Perhaps it needs to be done in the plugin code?…………the plugin redirects from the non-public directory to the page in Wordpress that serves the code.

Below is some of the htaccess I have tried.
