.htaccess

====================

1. Protect Your WordPress Admin Area

You can use .htaccess to protect your WordPress admin area by limiting the access to selected IP addresses only. Simply copy and paste this code into your .htaccess file:

01
AuthUserFile /dev/null

02
AuthGroupFile /dev/null

03
AuthName "WordPress Admin Access Control"

04
AuthType Basic

05
<LIMIT GET>

06
order deny,allow

07
deny from all

08
# whitelist Syed's IP address

09
allow from xx.xx.xx.xxx

10
# whitelist David's IP address

11
allow from xx.xx.xx.xxx

12
# whitelist Amanda's IP address

13
allow from xx.xx.xx.xxx

14
# whitelist Muhammad's IP address

15
allow from xx.xx.xx.xxx

16
# whitelist Work IP address

17
allow from xx.xx.xx.xxx

18
</LIMIT>

Replace xx.xx.xx.xxx with your own IP addresses. If you use more than one IP address to access the internet, then make sure you add them as well. See our guide on how to protect your admin folder in WordPress using .htaccess

8. Disable Image Hotlinking in WordPress Using .htaccess

Other people can slow down your website and steal your bandwidth by hotlinking images from your website. Normally, this doesn’t concern most users. However, if you run a popular site with lots of images and photos, then hotlinking can become a serious issue. You can prevent image hotlinking by adding this code in your .htaccess file:

1
#disable hotlinking of images with forbidden or custom image option

2
RewriteEngine on

3
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$

4
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http(s)?://(www\.)?wpbeginner.com [NC]

5
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http(s)?://(www\.)?google.com [NC]

6
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http(s)?://(www\.)?feeds2.feedburner.com/wpbeginner [NC]

7
RewriteRule \.(jpg|jpeg|png|gif)$ – [NC,F,L]

Don’t forget to replace wpbeginner.com with your own domain name.
