How you enable Hotlink Protection for images when using Varnish.

Hi ,

I'm using varnish with Wordpress but unable to find a way to make Hotlink protections plugins work. If you have solution please do share with us.

This isn't something I've studied in depth, but after a quick search, this
may be helpful:

Since the plugins are likely not aware of the Varnish layer, it makes sense
that this would be an issue. If you have access to your VCL (or can request
that your host add additional rules), the simplest way is probably to use
something like the above (modified for your excluded files, of course).
