Protect wp-login.php with htaccess

Hello!

I am using WordPress as a community. That means, a lot of users are registered and log in and log out to wordpress. But I built my own login-process, using the WordPress function “wp_signon()”.

To protect WordPress of hackers, I am using this htaccess-code:

<files wp-login.php>
AuthName "Admin-Bereich"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /www/htdocs/e0zuzu/mainparty/.htpasswd
require valid-user
</files>

This is all working.
But my question is:
Sometimes users have problems to log in. Can this deal with my htaccess-protection and the using of the function “wp_signon()”?

Thx!
