Using our Control Panel you can easily protect directories in your web site. Simply choose the Protect Directories icon from the Control Panel and follow these steps:

  1. Choose the directory you would like to password protect from the drop down.

  2. You can then Add/Modify/Remove a User.

You can have one password for everyone or you can assign a unique user name and password to each visitor. 

Warning! In order to use the Protect Directories option, the Microsoft FrontPage Extensions option must be disabled. If it is enabled, then you must use your version of Microsoft FrontPage to protect the directories. If the Microsoft FrontPage Extensions option is enabled, you will not have access to the Protect Directories option.

The password protect feature is included in all our hosting packages
