Password Protected Directories

Ever wanted to make a certain part of your site ‘members only’?

The Password Protect feature is an extremely useful way to password protect certain parts of your site. Simply click on the directory you wish to protect you you will be asked for the following

• Password Protect Checkbox - you MUST tick this box to switch on Password Protection
• Protected Resource Name - this will appear in the password box the user will see, for example you could have ‘mysite.com member’s only area’
• Username
• Password

Please note this is only a very basic (and not totally secure) way of password protecting areas of your site
