securing file uploads about django-fobi HOT 2 CLOSED

hmm. Do I have to develop a separate file-upload element?

from django-fobi.

Look, there are multiple ways of doing this. It's not really a fobi specific thing. It's standard Django - media directory is served statically. You do need to know the exact file path in order to get the file, but there are ways to secure the uploads. For instance, you could store them on S3 bucket and only make accessible from within your web site. You can also protect your media directory (do not serve it statically, but rather stream uploads via your web site. For that you might need to extend existing or create a new form handler component. Further, use your imagination. :)
