Create a redirect from the attachments directory to index.php with the slug as a url parameter
0
When a user directly accesses the uploads directory I need to be able to redirect the user to index.php?file=$1. For example:
someurl.com/uploads/sites/17/2018/10/image.jpg
to
someurl.com/index.php?file=/sites/17/2018/10/image.jpg
From this url I will be able to check against the current logged in users meta.

Do you want to prevent direct access to the entire uploads directory or just images (or other files)?

@Jamie_D I think the rule needs to be like: have we directly visited a file grab the part after the word upload and add it to the query string. Once there I can run a function to check user permissions.

Works, but is a little too harsh, is there any way to only use this rule if the file is accessed directly / downloaded and not just used in an image tag?
– James Glendenning

I'm still a bit hazy on what you want to accomplish. Can you clarify the best possible outcome? Do you actually want to redirect users, or do you want to run a function when they access an object in the uploads directory?
– Jamie_D
Nov 15 '18 at 18:52
If someone directly goes to the attachment url / right click downloads then I want to run a function that checks if the user is logged in.If they are then download away, else 404.However I want the images to display on the website, in an image tag for example, even if the user is not logged in.
