    I recently installed the free version of this beautiful plugin, but I have a huge problem: the files are visible through link even if the user has not access to that file. Why? Is there any solution? Thank you

    Hi,

    Thanks for your kind words. I would encourage you to create a support ticket in future if you have questions/concerns about the plugin.
    As per your question, please try deactivating and activating the plugin again. The plugin adds a block of code in your .htaccess file that ensures the files are private and should not accessible with a direct link by public.

    If reactivating the plugin doesn’t fix the issue, please check your .htaccess file and find if there is a block of code that looks something like the below:

    # BEGIN User Private Files
    # The directives (lines) between "BEGIN User Private Files" and "END User Private Files" are
    # dynamically generated, and should only be modified via WordPress filters.
    # Any changes to the directives between these markers will be overwritten.
    RewriteRule ^wp-content/uploads/upf-docs/(.*)$ https://YOURSITE.COM?file=$1 [QSA,L]
    # END User Private Files

    If you don’t see the code above, please add it and replace https://YOURSITE.COM with your site’s address.

    If the issue persists, please try deactivating other plugins and test. Let me know what you find out.
