Direct access of files through url
-
Hi
I have found that after uploading the course materials in media library in the wordpress website, if the course materials are having similar names, anyone can download the materials through direct url:
For example, if I have notes with names of note001, and others, people can just download different note by changing the url from:
https://www.”mywebsite”/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/note001
to
https://www.”mywebsite”/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/note002
and so on
I have tried using the plugin “Prevent Direct Access” but in the download page, it only use the protected download links instead of Private Download Links, which means only _pda/ is added in the direct url and nothing changed, people can still download the course materials.
What should I do?
