A password-protected directory is a folder which can't be accessed unless the proper login credentials are offered. This could be a whole site or only one page that is located in a subfolder. If you try to open this kind of a directory, you shall see a web browser pop-up in which you will need to input a username and also a password. If you type in the correct ones, you'll be able to continue exploring the content without having to do anything additional. If the login credentials aren't correct, however, you shall see a message that you are not authorized to look at the content. If this function is activated, you won't be able to open a file even if you have a direct link. The option is extremely effective if you need to restrict the access to some content or if you work on a site and you do not want visitors to be able to access it prior to it being ready.

Creating a password-protected area shall take no more than a few clicks and a few seconds if you host your websites within a shared website hosting account with us. You'll not have to do anything complicated - you'll have to choose a domain/subdomain, to choose which folder under it has to be protected, and then to type the login name and password that'll be used to access that folder. If a number of people require their own login details, there shall not be a problem to create numerous different usernames with access to the same exact folder. All secured folders shall appear with a padlock icon inside the File Manager section, so you shall always know where this feature is active. If you wish to turn off the protection function for any folder, you can deactivate it from the exact same section of the CP where you have enabled it.
