Is there a way to stop people access the image directories on my site. A forum recently posted links to folders within my server so they could bypass the coppermine register only. For example:

http://www.michelletrachtenberg.net/gallery/albums/caps/
http://www.michelletrachtenberg.net/gallery/albums/icepremiere/

It allows all the folders and images within there to be accessed. If you go to http://www.michelletrachtenberg.net/gallery/albums it says it is unallowed which is what I want, is there a way to make that work for all the folders within the albums directory? I have bandwidth problems so I want people to register in order to be able to view pictures to help reduce the bandwidth usage.

Create a file called .htaccess and put it into the albums folder. In the file, put the following line:

Code: [Select]

Options -Indexes
I think this works with apache only.

You would also need to enable hotlink protection so that people cannot access the files directly if they know the URL to them. I posted the code for that so you should try searching.

a non web server dependent solution is to place in your sub albums directories an index.html file, the same that is in your albums directory:
you only got to change the line

Code: [Select]

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=../index.php">

with

Code: [Select]

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=../../index.php">

---------------------------

Code: [Select]

Thanks so much!

It works perfectly.

@bree: you did it for the "caps" but not "icepremiere" one is it normal?

@DevTeam: I'm using that trick on my own website too.
in the batch add script, when you add pictures from an album sub-directory, maybe it would be good to create this "index.html" in it automatically? ( check first if there's one, and if no create one )

en fait, il suffit de faire ça :

Create a file called .htaccess and put it into the albums folder. In the file, put the following line:

Code:
Options -Indexes

et ça marche nickel pour tous les albums...

merci pour tout.
