Install

No release zip yet. The repository archive installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow:

wp plugin install https://github.com/spkcd/ppv-obfuscate-uploads-plugin/archive/refs/heads/main.zip

Usage

  • Activate “PPV Obfuscate Uploads” in WP Admin → Plugins.
  • When you upload a .mp4 (or other recognized video), WordPress automatically renames it to a random hash and places it in /ppv/.
  • If you upload images or PDFs, they still go to /wp-content/uploads/ as normal.

Limitations & Tips

  • If you want to store videos outside the doc root, change $custom_dir to something like /home/runcloud/webapps/contactcustody/private-ppv, but you must then serve them via a script (see the .htaccess + check_access.php snippet later).
  • Make sure /ppv/ or that custom path is writable by the webserver user.
