Using a Reverse Proxy
Providing these additional config options is a special service we offer to our members. However, advanced users can set the same web security headers in combination with a reverse proxy running in front of their instances if they did not sign up for a membership or have special requirements.
Should you decide to use alternative solutions, such as deploying a proxy or a web application firewall (WAF) in front of PhotoPrism, please note that our team will not be able to provide you with technical support and we recommend this only if you have the experience required.
