Hello,
I wanted to protect my website with htaccess. Two locations - public_html and wp-admin (wordpress).
Now I want to remove the public_html protection - my assumption is that I should simply remove the .htaccess file from the public_html. Thats what I did. I kept the one in wp-admin.
Now when I enter my website .. it shows up, and asks me to enter the same login password as the wp_admin.
Why is that?
I thought that perhaps I can create a new .htaccess file that disables the window that pops up and asks me for my credentials. But how, and is it really what can help me?
Thanks in advance!
