Allowing or restricting IP access

You can allow or deny access to your web site from users who try to access your site from a particular IP address. This is useful to prevent hot linking (when another web site owner links directly to one or more of your images or multimedia files and includes it on their web page).

To allowing or restrict IP access:

  1. Click on the File Manager link in the navigation area.

  2. Navigate to the required directory.

  3. Click on the name of the required directory that you want to edit.

  4. Click on the HTACCESS button.

  5. Enter the IP address in the IP field.

  6. Click on the Allow button or Deny button, as required.
