• Debian 11 is approaching its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 will be the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

Hi kapil soni,

if found an external blog article, which might help you to understand and setup "Hotlink protection" on servers using nginx.

=> nginx - Image hotlink protection using rewrite - nikhil's blog ( external link, pls. inform me over a private message, if the link goes dead, so I may provide another working link! )

Hello @UFHH01,

Thank you for your help,

I applied the said settings to my.. Domain >> Apache & nginx Settings >> Additional nginx directives

But still it's not protecting my images. seems it's not working or am I doing something wrong? where the setting I applied is correct?

Kindly guide.

Thanks
Best Regards
Kapil
