I simply want people to authenticate themselves when typing in my website URL. For example, I saw an article on 10/20/14 that said that FX was coming out with a website for the Simpsons called 'simpsonsworld.com' so I visited the site (to check it out). However, later in the article it said that the site was not becoming live until 10/21/14 (today). When I typed in 'simpsonsworld.com' into the URL, a dropdown box asked me to authenticate myself (username & password). When you visit the site today (10/21), the site is completely visible.
How do I get this drop-down box when someone types in 'myurl.com'?
Thank you!
Use .htaccess
and .htpassword
. From http://davidwalsh.name/password-protect-directory-using-htaccess
.htaccess should contain
AuthType Basic
AuthName "restricted area"
AuthUserFile /the/path/youre/protecting/.htpasswd
require valid-user
.htpasswd should contain
username:password
