Password protection
If you need to protect your site or a part of your site with a password, here are the codes... You'll need to make a new file named .htaccess, the file's name must be exactly .htaccess! Nothing else. Well, so open notepad, and paste this:
PerlSetVar AuthFile 6541.txt
AuthName "PASSWORD REQUIRED"
AuthType Basic
require valid-user
Save as .htaccess or paste it in your current htaccess file. "PASSWORD REQUIRED" is the message shown when someone tries to access the page. The "6541.txt" in bold is the name of the file containing your password and username. I advise you to name it with a name or numbers nobody can find... If it isn't in the same folder as your htaccess file, you can add folder/6541.txt Well, then, open a new blank document, and put your username and password like this:
USERNAME:PASSWORD
Save it as 6541.txt !
