Overview FAQ History Discussion

❓ Q&A​


Q: Can guests still see the Media Gallery index?​


✅ Yes
Guests can browse /media/ and category lists normally.


Q: What happens when a guest clicks an image?​


They are redirected to the XenForo login page.

After logging in, they return to the original media page.


Q: Does this break the lightbox?​


❌ No
This add-on specifically intercepts /full endpoints so lightbox previews no longer show blank or broken images.


Q: Does this block direct image URLs?​


✅ Yes
Direct access to media URLs will redirect guests to login.


Q: Does this affect albums?​


Currently:
  • Album browsing still works
  • Media inside albums is gated (because Media controller is gated)
Album-level toggles can be added later if needed.


Q: Does this affect attachments outside Media Gallery?​


❌ No
Only XFMG media routes are affected. Forum attachments remain unchanged.


Q: Does this require template edits?​


❌ No
No public templates are modified.


Q: Will this slow down the site?​


❌ No
Only runs a lightweight check on media view routes.


Q: Is this compatible with Cloudflare/CDN?​


✅ Yes
Redirects occur before file delivery.


Q: Can I customize the login message?​


Yes — via XenForo language phrases or optional template mods if desired.
(Default behavior uses XenForo's login page.)


Q: Is this safe for production use?​


✅ Yes
Uses native XF controller extension system and redirect handling.
