Password Protection

    Is there any way to password protect a media folder? For example, I have certain password protected pages on my site, with .pdf files within them. However, if you can know the media file URL, you can access the document. Is there any way that you could create a setting within the media folder to protect files within that folder?

    Thank you for the help

    On most servers there is a way to password protest a directory. This can be done through your site’s cPanel or you can manually create this. See this article.

    Then when you want to access the folder, probably you will need to directly access it first through your browser and enter the password. Then you should be able view the folder with MLP and access the files.
