An .htaccess file is a text file that contains directives which tell a server how to act in specific cases. It should be placed into the folder where these directives should be carried out. Numerous script-driven apps employ this kind of a file to operate efficiently - WordPress and Joomla™, for example. You can use such a file with personalized content as well and do a wide range of things - block an IP address, an entire network or specific websites from accessing your site, set custom made error pages that shall show up instead of the server-generated ones if a visitor encounters some error on the site, redirect a domain or a subdomain to a new web address, set up a password-protected area and more. With an .htaccess file, you will have far better control over your web presence.
.htaccess Generator in Hosting
We have an easy-to-work-with .htaccess generator tool that will permit you to set up and use this type of files with no difficulty even if you have no previous experience and you do not know the syntax of the respective directives for this kind of a file. The tool is part of the Hepsia CP, which comes with our Linux hosting packages and any option inside it can be enabled by choosing acheckbox and eventually by typing a username or a URL, depending on what exactly you intend to do with the .htaccess file. You may also choose where the file should be created, so you will not need to do anything by hand after or before that. By using an .htaccess file, you'll be able to choose the PHP version which will be enabled for a particular domain, even when it is not the same version as the one for the entire account.
