Blocking direct access in /wp-content/uploads/ is not working

    “Block direct access to any PHP file located in one of these directories” option seems not working. I put php script inside /wp-content/uploads/ directory or other subdirs and when I open that script directly in browser it works without any messages from NinjaFirewall (WP Edition) installed today.

    Maybe I understood that option incorrectly, could somebody clarify that?

    Hi,

    Make sure you are not logged in. The admin is whitelisted and won’t be blocked by the firewall.
    Log out, or try to access those files from another browser or device.

    You are right – the cause is I was logged in.
    Thank you!
