Protect Uploads
Description
The uploads directory is where the files of the WordPress library are stored. Unfortunately, this directory is not protected. A person who wants to see all your library could list it instantly by going to yourwebsite/wp-content/uploads. This plugin will hide the content by adding an index.php file on the root of your uploads directory or by setting an htaccess which will return a 403 error (Forbidden Access).
New features in version 0.6.0 include image watermarking, right-click protection, password protection, and access logging. You can add text watermarks to your uploaded images with customizable position, opacity, and font size. Prevent users from right-clicking to download or save your images. Secure individual media files with passwords, and track who accesses your password-protected files with detailed logs including IP address and user agent.
This plugin is available in multiple languages including English, Français, Español, and Italian.
