Website Management

.htaccess is a file that you create in a web accessible directory to override default Apache settings on that directory and all of the directories inside of it. [If you don't want this, you need to create another .htaccess file in the subdirectory changing the setting you changed back to the default.] If the directory is writable by the web server you can create a .htaccss file from the File Manager.

Click the Hosting Features menu item if it is not already open.
Click the Htaccess menu item.
Click the [ PHP Variables ] for the directory you’d like to manage.
For each option, there is an “Inherited” setting. When “Inherited” is selected, the PHP variable will inherit its value from the parent directory above. The displayed value shown next to the “Inherited” option is the value that will be used for that directory.
Adjust the PHP settings as desired.
Click the UPDATE button.

Click the Htaccess menu item.
Click the [ Hotlink Protection ] link for the directory you’d like to manage.
In the “Hotlink Protection Status” drop down, choose if you want the protection enabled immediately, or not. This option is useful if you’d like to turn your hotlink protection settings on or off quickly to see the difference, without deleting your hotlink protection settings and having to re-create them.
