[bd] Attachment Store [Deleted]

[MattW]

Huh?

you need to create a cname entry, eg js which will be an alias of 8thos.com

That defeats the object of the whole thing, as the point is to use a different domain to make it cookieless for your CDN. My site is .co.uk and my CDN uses my .com address

 

[DRE]

Like this?

$config['externalDataUrl'] = 'https://data.8thos.com';

Yeah, that should do it. Try going to that URL and see if you get your site.

I'm still using CDN.net for my styles and javascript folder.

CDN.net's hotlink protection isn't working for me. So while I wait for them to help me out with that issue I would like to at least enable hotlink protection for the site's data folder. It doesn't work that well with attachments however. I have to use BD Store and use the external file path option in order to protect attachments. When I use BD Store I can then enable hotlink protection. This addon's pretty useful.

Not working.

 

[MattW]

Not working.

In that case, based on your previous reply, just remove the data directory from config.php, as you are still serving it from the same domain name. There is no point using a subdomain for it.

 

[MattW]

Also, wasn't data.8thos.com being used for the CDN? You have a TTL of 14400 seconds (4 hours), so it will take at least 4 hours to update across the internet.

EDIT:

ping data.8thos.com
PING 955401012.r.worldcdn.net (209.190.64.12) 56(84) bytes of data.

That doesn't work because it still gives the default Xenforo attachment url.

Yeah data.8thos.com was the cdn for cdn.net but I stopped using it for cdn.net due to a hotlinking issue.

Trying to the data folder with bd attachment store so that I can use hotlink protection with it.

I don't understand that TTL stuff.

Are you talking about the hotlinked image itself?

 

[rdn]

Matt referring to your dns.

 

[MattW]

NO, the DNS for the data.8thos.com

 

[MattW]

That doesn't work because it still gives the default Xenforo attachment url.

and how does that make a difference? All changing the dataURL is doing is making it data.8thos.com/data instead of 8thos.com/data ??

Oh okay. Which addon is making this attachment look like this then? I thought this was BD Attachment Store.

https://8thos.com/data/attachment-files/2013/09/48500_nathalia.jpg

This is a normal attachment url without BD Store

https://8thos.com/attachments/image-jpg.44750/
