I am using the members app with the secure download.php solution for files from a secure bucket that is outside of my public_html folder. It seems to be working and when I add a test PDF file a test-document-w150h150@2x.png file is created in the secure folder along with the uploaded PDF. I am using Imagick and have PDF files successfully generating thumbnails in other parts of the site. For these secure files I am getting a missing image in the Perch admin not the thumbnail as I would expect and I guess because it is generating the image I am not getting the non imagick generic icon either. If I look for the missing image in Perch it says it should be at https://teap.co.uk/secure-area/download/test-document-w150h150@2x.png
Any ideas much appreciated.
Do you see the
-thumb.pngfile being generated?No all that is being saved in the secure bucket is
test-document.pdfandtest-document-w150h150@2x.pngIf I change the template from bucket="secure" to bucket="general" the thumbnail is generated as expected and it seems to be using a file with the same name as is being generated in the secure bucket for the thumbnail. It seems like the Perch admin is also trying to download the thumbnail from the secure download method.
with secure bucket thumbnail is looking for image at:
this fails.
The document link created works and downloads the PDF:
With non-secure general bucket the thumbnail is shown at location.
Yes, that sounds like what is happening. If you've configured the bucket to prevent direct access then that's how it behaves.
Is there any way to turn the creation of thumbnails off for this secure bucket?
I don't believe so, no.
