Hi David,

Just wondering just how save is password protection using .htaccess for the admin area? Can't it be easily hacked?

Hi Gobbo,

.htaccess authentication is very good with a strong password, shouldn't be anything to worry about! Don't forget that you can also enable the built-in cookie based authentication by setting a password at line 2 of config.advanced.php e.g.

  $config_adminPassword = "mypassword";

Cheers,
David.
