The

# Protect WooCommerce upload folder from being accessed directly.
# You may want to change this config if you are using "Redirect Only" method for downloadable products.
# Place this config towards the end of "server" block in nGinx configuration.
location ~* /wp-content/uploads/woocommerce_uploads/ {
    if ( $upstream_http_x_accel_redirect = "" ) {
        return 403;
    }
    internal;
}

Do we have to add it on the wp-content/uploads/woocommerce_uploads/.htaccess ?

Hi @stavroch,

When asking questions like this, it helps to provide context for what you’re trying to do. It also helps to provide a link to the actual documentation that you’re referring to, which is this one – https://woocommerce.com/document/digital-downloadable-product-handling/#protecting-your-uploads-directory

The code you’ve highlighted is only to be used if you are running NGINX as your webserver instead of Apache (which is the most common option)

Apache servers have and understand .htaccess files. NGINX servers do not.

If you have a .htaccess file, you are running Apache and therefore do not have any use for that code.

Hi @luminus

I am referring to https://woocommerce.com/document/digital-downloadable-product-handling/

Btw I create one menu page by using this tutorial https://rudrastyh.com/woocommerce/my-account-menu.html

That eshop sell only one product so, that solution is ok for now. Of course we have to modify the email alerts.

Thank you for your support.

Hi @stavroch!

As per some of the tutorials I read online, the Nginx configuration file is located under /etc/nginx/nginx.conf. I believe that’s the place where the code should go, but it would be good to confirm this with your web host.

The code you’ve mentioned above should only be used if you are using X-Accel-Redirect/X-Sendfile or Force Downloads method.

I am not sure what are your end goals for adding the menu in My Account but from your message, it appears that you are all set. ??

Please do let us know if you have any questions.
