Downloads Permissions

[leefish]

So, two years later and I am back with a question about downloading files.

add option to expire attachment links and/or tie them to IP address ranges; enable in cache/xthreads.php (requested by Sama34)

Example: {$GLOBALS['threadfields']['pfapic2']['value']}  <- That image would not be affected? pfapic is my threadfield key.

I was considering doing this with my sims downloads (making the url variable) because I am having problems with hotlinking. However, I am still worried about my images. My users often put a big picture in their posts and am I right in thinking that if I was to implement this then all the images in posts (using mybb code) would break?  Is there any way to make this function not change the url to an image file?
