I notice some IV users sites restrict direct access to content folders via direct URLs.
As an example.
- go to "www.(mysitename).com/content" and all the content files and folders are visible via the browser.
Some IV users sites, however, will show a "Forbidden" or 403 error if you do the same thing.
Is this done by including a code within the .htaccess to prevent directly opening certain folders?
The closest thing I've found on the subject through my hosts help desk is this: http://helpdesk.bluehost.com/kb/index.p ... d=2&id=567
By including this script within the .htaccess file I AM able to restrict access to my content folder, but then some thumbnails no longer display in the galleries...
Can anyone offer advice on how you are restricting access without effecting the gallery behavior?
Thanks in Advance -;)
