Hide “Un-protected File” from Media Library

    There is an extra column in Media Library List View with Download Monitor: “Un-protected File” and a red X next to it for each file in the media library.

    As this is not needed and confusing for our users, what is the best way to disable or remove this from the Media Library display?

    Thanks!

  • Hello @bozzmedia ,

    Please uncheck the Download Monitor checkbox from the Media Library’s screen options, this will remove the column from the view.

    Thank you, however I’m trying to disable this globally for all users, not just me. Is there a filter for this if not a plugin setting?

    Hey @bozzmedia ,

    You could add the following snippet to your child theme’s functions.php file that will remove Download Monitor’s column:

    add_filter( 'manage_upload_columns', function ( $columns ) { unset( $columns['dlm_protection'] ); return $columns; }, 20 );

    Please let me know if this worked for you.

    Warmly,
