• hello,

    I would like to prevent anyone to get to my first page without loging in. So, I altered the default .htaccess file (the one provided when installing WordPress), to add the password location (and maintaining the code for WordPress), as shown :
    AuthName “Under construction”
    AuthUserFile /www/password/password.txt
    AuthType basic
    Require valid-user
    Order Deny,Allow
    Deny from all
    Allow from w3.org googlebot.com google.com google-analytics.com
    Satisfy Any

    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    # END WordPress

    When running the page I get the error “Internal server error”.
    Could you please let me know if the file is correct ?
    Thanks for your help.
