Thanks, indeed It seems what I need exists as plugins.
The plugin offer of wordpress is really, really solid.

Too bad, as it can’t help in the cases where the attachements are uploaded from the frontend as user generated content such as in a forum plugin for exemple.

I wished it would work like it does with images.

May I suggest you find a way to make it work site wide just like it does brilliantly with images.

Thanks!

Unfortunately not, i’ll try to see with them.
I suggest you implement a feature to recognize htaccess or any other form of in page tags so we can exclude some directories.

Anyway, the service you provide is really great, a game changer.

Sure.
I have a very specific case of a plugin causing the problem.
The plugin is a forum system that lets user upload their little avatar pic. It’s such a case where the image is deleted, reuploaded but with a fixed name: the username. So each time the use change its avatar picture, it gets reloaded with same name. And each time it’s the original image served by the CDN.

Excluding this directory would have been a solution.

Thank you very much for your answer.
I chose your plugin over the “other one” for my site and don’t regret it.

I only wish the sitemap would also include tags and categories, which is not the case if i’m not mistaken.
