How do I password-protect a directory?
You can protect directories within your site from browsers by using a password to protect them.

This allows you to restrict material to only authorized users or store sensitive material online.

To password protect a directory:

1. Click on the "Password Protect Directories" button at the control panel

2. Navigate to the directory that you want to protect. Select a folder by clicking on the folder name link, or open a folder by clicking on the folder icon.

3. Click on the tick box next to the "Lock" icon.

4. Enter the name that you want to appear in the Protected Resource Name field. This is optional and purely for the user’s benefit.

5. Click on the "Save" button.

Generally, you now need to add at least one authorized user to enable access to the directory.
