An .htaccess file is a text file which contains directives which tell a web server how to operate in particular events. It needs to be positioned in the folder where these directives should be performed. Loads of script-driven apps employ such a file to operate efficiently - WordPress and Joomla™, for instance. You can use such a file with custom made content as well and do quite a lot of things - block an IP address, an entire network or particular sites from accessing your site, set tailor-made error pages which shall appear instead of the server-generated ones in case a visitor encounters some error on the website, redirect a domain or a subdomain to another web address, create a password-protected area plus more. With an .htaccess file, you will have significantly better control over your world-wide web presence.

We have an intuitive .htaccess generator tool that will allow you to set up and use such files without any difficulty even if you have no previous experience and you do not know the syntax of the specific directives for this type of a file. The tool is part of the Hepsia CP, supplied with our web hosting and any option within it could be enabled by choosing acheckbox and eventually by inputting a username or a URL, depending on what exactly you want to do with the .htaccess file. You could also select where the file should be created, so you won't have to do anything manually before or after that. Using an .htaccess file, you'll also be able to select the PHP version that will be enabled for a particular domain, regardless if it isn't the same version as the one for the entire account.
