Guest Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 what do you have installed for controlling the admin area? by default, osCommerce has no admin access control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 then you need to use htaccess to protect the admin area, the only other way to setup individual access is with administration access with levels, in the contribution area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥Vger Posted December 2, 2004 Share Posted December 2, 2004 To protect your 'admin' folder you must do a few things. 1. Essential - rename it to something unique, and alter the paths to 'admin' in your admin/includes/configure.php file to reflect the new name for the folder 2. Password Protect the folder. You may be able to do this from your web hosting Control Panel 3. If you have access to a shared or ful ssl certificate then place all of your 'admin' under ssl by changing all references to http://www.yourdomain.com (in admin/includes/configure.php) to https://www.yourdomain.com Vger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
