Just a quick recap.

Context: I’m the user. You’re the developer.

1 year and 11 months ago: a user told you here that the folder and its content were public and indexed. So you can easily find them on Google. After treating him with the same attitude you’re treating me (but that’s a problem we can’t tackle here), blaming “the server configuration” and proposing useless solution…you did nothing.

This means that: since your plugin was published (I think 2017), all the files uploaded via your plugin were public and easily reachable via a Google search.

05/10/2020: another user (me) wrote you for the same question. After the usual blame “on the server configuration” and useless solutions you decided to release an update which finally prevents the files uploaded via your plugin to be indexed.

This means that: from 2017 until 06/10/2020 the files uploaded via your plugin were indexed, public and visible. All this without the users being aware of it.

But I’m the one who have to understand the basics of security. LOL!

P.S. While I learn them, try to learn the basics of privacy and Data Protection. We could both profit out of this.

As you know well…it’s not fixed at all!

Files inside the folder are still public!

Ok thank you. IMHO that’s an important feature. I hope it will be restored in the near future.

Meanwhile, thank you again.

Thank you for taking care promptly of this.

The update seems to have fixed this. Thank you again.

But in the Settings -> Mode panel there’s no more the option to limit file attachments to some file types (e.g. .pdf, .png …)
