Thanks for the snippet! Really handy. I just added if(!empty( $_REQUEST["post_id"]) ) { .. } around your code to make it not fail the first time you load WP.

Thank you so much for posting this handy snippet! Exactly what I needed. Combined with the Orbisius Media Protector https://orbisius.com/products/wordpress-plugins/orbisius-wp-media-protector I was able to set up a protected folder for internal post type files while keeping the rest of the WP uploads public. Works just fine with files uploaded though custom fields from Toolset WP Types.

Do you know how to change protected folder for Orbisius Media Protector?

It works like a charm!
But it works when thumbnail support of CPT is enabled. Upon removing thumbnail support and uploading media through custom meta field it returns URL www.example.com/file-name/
Any help would be great. Thanks
