Had a question i'm sure someone might have came across and would share a fix.

In the provided htaccess file , i had to add prevention for hotlinking. After doing so , when you open any image in the directories in lightbox , there is a download link. Once clicked it fails to download the file when disabling the hotlinking. Any ideas on why that is happening ?

Added to htaccess to disable hotlinking , and now lightbox won't allow for downloads

disable hotlinking
