However, the links to these can only be accessed via the entry detail. The URL's to the files are unlikely to be guessed due to the file folder structure. In the future we would like to add more security, however that will require .htaccess modifications in order to implement. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/securing-file-uploads#post-26440 Fri, 27 May 2011 01:46:42 +0000 Jukka Karvonen 26440@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I would also like to know if there is any way to restrict attachment file downloading to administrators and editors only. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/securing-file-uploads#post-16180 Thu, 13 Jan 2011 18:44:08 +0000 frankp 16180@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Curently when someone uploads an attachment with a form it goes into the uploads folder and is browseable if someone knew the filename. While I know this is unlikely, is there a way to make file uploads more secure for peace of mind?</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
