HTTP Auth

Descripcion

This plugin empowers you to set up HTTP Authentication for your website. This adds an extra layer of security by requiring a username and password to access specific areas.

Here’s how it benefits you:

• Enhanced Admin Security: Shield your admin pages from brute-force attacks by adding a login barrier.
• Controlled Crawling: Restrict crawlers from accessing your site during development, preventing unnecessary indexing.
• Post-Launch Access Control: Maintain control over admin page access even after your website goes live.
• Easy Activation/Deactivation: Conveniently enable or disable HTTP Auth without deactivating the plugin entirely.
