The uploads directory is where the files of the WordPress library are stored. Unfortunelty, this directory is not protected. A person who wants to see all your library could list it instantly going to : http://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). Depending on your server setting, the htaccess option could be disabled. Available languages : English Français Español Italian (thanks to Marko97) For support, please visit protect uploads plugin
