If you wish to keep some content concealed from the public eye, you'll be able to enable password protection for a specific folder - either the primary website folder or another one below it. If this feature is activated, a pop-up shall appear every time someone tries to open the folder in question or clicks on a direct link which goes a few levels deeper, so login info will be needed for www.domain.com/folder/image.jpg in case you have secured only the domain.com folder. In case the details aren't valid, a “403 Forbidden” message shall appear and there is no way to get around this restriction, so you can be sure that nobody will be able to access the secured content. The feature may be beneficial in a variety of scenarios - if only a number of individuals should be able to see particular files, if you are creating a site and you don't want people to see it before it is completed, and so forth.
Password Protected Directories in Cloud Hosting
With the password protection tool that comes with each cloud hosting package deal that we offer, you shall be able to secure any content which you have within your account with simply a few clicks. Since the tool is part of our innovative Hepsia Control Panel, it offers the same uncomplicated interface and you'll not need any special skills to use it. Once you navigate to the Password Protection section, you'll have to pick one of the domains or subdomains which you have within the account and then decide whether the protection should be activated for the main folder or for a subfolder. Then input the username and the password that you want and you will be ready. A small padlock symbol within the File Manager section will tell you that a certain folder is password-protected. In the very same way you'll be able to add multiple usernames and passwords for the same folder if you would like several people to have their own login credentials.
Password Protected Directories in Semi-dedicated Hosting
You shall be able to set up password protection for any content you have within your semi-dedicated server account. We have integrated an easy-to-use tool to the Hepsia hosting Control Panel using which you shall be able to enable the function with a few clicks and with no difficulties, even if you are not very tech-savvy. You'll simply have to pick the hostname (domain or subdomain), the specific folder which must be secured (the primary folder or a subfolder) as well as the login name and password. The protection will take effect instantaneously, so if you make an attempt to open the password-protected URL within your browser, you will need to type the newly created login credentials in order to proceed. Additionally, you will be able to give different usernames for the same folder to a number of individuals, so you will not have to share the same login details with everybody. Any password-protected folder will have a tiny padlock icon within the File Manager section, so you'll be able to recognize such folders with ease.
