Same here... No option... Please help.

Getting the same problem people are getting. I don't see an option in the backend.

Hmmm this is odd, I will download the mod again and re-install it on my forum, the option is definitely there on mine, not too sure what's happening here.....

This problem is very odd.

Tried reinstalling it and still no go.

Actually this is only working for browsers where the referer is passed back to the site. This won't work for anyone using a proxy or a multiple proxy with altering hostnames. Be aware of this.

Works good for me. :cool:

Angel-Wings, is it possible to display an alternative image for advertising your site instead of a plain red X - In this way it's free advertising for your site by linking to an alternative hotlink image? :cool:

I've had a go with copying some other code for .htacess from another hotlinking post on here but couldn't get it to work because I assume it only works on the filetype stated rather than the attachments. Code I used as below:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.examplesite.co.uk/forum/.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule .(jpg|jpeg|gif|png|bmp)$ http://www.examplesite.co.uk/forum/images/hotlink.jpg [R,L]

I'm a total novice at this type of stuff so apologies for any errors!

steadicamop would it be possible to add an alternate image to display in the plugin you have created?

Just imported the product, nothing has changed, attachments can still ne hotlinked? Also no option, like others have mentioned...

*uninstalled.

Same here!!! I've tried importing the product again yet nothing has changed, attachments can still be hotlinked? Also like you say, there is no option in admin CP!

*uninstalled* which is a great shame because it had so much potential :(
