Why can people browse some of the WP folder structure? (2 posts)

    Hi there!

    I am wondering where I can set parameters to not allow people to be able to browse folders on my web server - ofcourse I want only the "real" WordPress content (and not the subfolders)to be visible and accessed from the blog.

    Example:

    http://www.caputmundicibus.com/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-popular-posts/scripts/

    Thank you!

    hi

    do one of these - the first one is easier

    1) add this to the .htaccess file in your website's root folder.
    Options -Indexes
    that turns off directory display throughout the website

    2) or, place an empty file called index.html in every folder in which the directory is appearing where you don't want it showing.
