    Hi,

    I’m trying to find a way to avoid the direct access to video and audio located in the media library. I want those file can only access via a post or a page in my site.

    I saw there are some plugins like “Prevent Direct Access” and “Media Vault”, but both need to edit the .htaccess file that is not available in wordpress.com

    Is there some way or some plugin o some way to use those plugins in wordpress.com?

    Thank you very much :)
