People need help. In short, there is a site where there are files and I need to make sure that these files do not have direct access.

например: http://site.ru/userfile/file.doc

But I need to make a request with the get parameter

 htp://site.ru/?view=post&path=file.doc

and in the handler doing so

 $path = "userfile/".$_GET['path'];

I tried to close access via .htaccess like this. I'm redirecting

 RewriteRule ^userfile/(.*)$ htp://site.ru/ [L,R=301]

But in this case, the get request from the handler does not work. What do you advise? Is there any way to redirect?

    1. Close the file from outsiders in .htaccess
     deny from all

    Or even put it outside the web directory.

    1. Then in the code we give the file through the headers:
     <?php $filename = 'path/to/file.doc'; // путь к файлу, который будем считывать header('Content-Type: application/msword'); // обязательно поставить нужный контент тайп header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=file.doc'); readfile($filename);
