.htaccess Generator

[eUKhost.com]

Found this helpful website on the web for generation of .htaccess

htaccess Generator

It seems to be very helpful for someone like me who has no knowledge of web development. You can generate a .htaccess file for rewrite rules, redirects, Map Folder To Script, Custom Error Documents, Rewrite Condition, Protect System Files, File Cache Control, Additional Mime Types, File Extensions, Default Page & Authentication.

I hope this will help everyone over here and me as well

Can I somehow comment (remark) out lines in my .htaccess file so that I can see them but they have no effect? I would like to document where some sections of the file came from, why, how to use them, and what they do.

Thanks

Yes. You need to add "#" infront of respective line to comment it.

<FILES .htaccess>
order allow,deny 
deny from all
</FILES>

Hope this help

[Davidpoul]

I check the site and I notice that it help me lot. Thank for this

[_Chris_]

That looks good. It would also be good that no-one else could edit the htaccess - what is the best way of ensuring that ? How safe and secure, is :

<FILES .htaccess>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</FILES>

[digi1001]

Thanks for the tip. Would using the rules in the post by _Chris_ above, compromise security?

[_Chris_]

Yep, I would like to know as well.

Explain me please what is htaccess generator?

Explain me please what is htaccess generator?

It allows you to easily create .htaccess rules for .htaccess files that are usually placed in the root website folder (i.e. on cPanel this would be the public_html or www folder). .htaccess can be used to block specific IPs from accessing a particular folder (or your entire website) and much much more.
