How do I password protect a folder? Print

Within your CPANEL, you have the ability to password protect a folder within your website. You can create as many logins as needed for a protected folder. 

Click on Password Protect Directories in Site Management. To password protect a directory click on the directory's name. To protect a sub-directory click on the folder next to the name and then click on the sub-directory's name. 

This takes you to a configuration panel where you must:

- Check the box labeled 'Password protect this directory'
