Hey folks,

I am planning to set up a shop based on wonderful coppermine gallery. I would host around 750 product images. At the moment I uploaded images into /albums where I created a directory for each category. Then I used batch upload. After testing my site I noticed that images are easy to grab. Is there any way I can `hide` them so if someone will want to copy then would have to do it one by one.

I am aware of watermark solution, any other ideas?


Cheers,

Alex.

What do you mean 'easy to grab'? Do you see a directory listing?

alexft

Yes I can see directory listing partly. I can see/albums and sub directories there plus /images.

OK, add a file in your Coppermine directory named .htaccess containing the following line:


Options -Indexes


If the file already exists just add in the new line.
