Hi torophal

Yes i have solved the problem with slow TTFB on protected files.

But i have disabled the “Lock files” feature i UAM.
I have read in other forums that the approach used in UAM to protect files is very memoryheavy if there is a lot of images on the page.
On every filerequest the server have to call wordpress to see if the file is allowed to be loaded.

Instead I have moved the protected file to a seperate folder on the server and use an other plugin to do the job.

1. Move files from /uploads to /uploads/members.

2. Install the plugin prevent-file-access

3. Enable protection and protect the members folder.

My TTFB on images is now the same as without file-protection.

The prevent-file-access plugin generate a simple setting in the .htaccess file and if you know a little programing it is not that hard to customize the .htaccess, if you have special needs.

Happy coding.. ??

Let me hear if it worked for you as well.

I think the css approach is a bad practice.
This will load the js but remove the display on all pages.

A better approach would be that the plugin only add the reCaptcha js-file on pages where a contact form 7 is present.

Plugin Asset CleanUp: Page Speed Booster could do this trick, but this should be intergrated in the Contact form 7 plugin.

You are right. I have the same problem.
Just delete the .htaccess i wp-content/upload. This is the file that is generated from file lock file, and disable lock file.

This is the answer from FRQ.
– You can deactivate the file locking at the UAM settings.
– You can replace your media files in your posts. Just delete the old link and insert it again. (A new working link will generated)

Have you found another solution?
