How can I secure my admin panel

[Guest]

Yes I have searched the forums, the contributions, and I have called my host, but I can't seem to find a solution to securing the admin panel.

 

If anyone has any links or info on this, please let me know.

 

Thanks

You can modify your admin/includes/configure.php (replace *YOUR URL* with your URL.

 

 

FIND:

 

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://*YOUR URL*'); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

 

REPLACE with:

 

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'https://*YOUR SECURE URL*'); // eg, http://localhost - should not be empty for productive servers

Your host should have supplied you with a control panel from there you can password protect your admin

Use .htaccess to protect the admin area, do a search on Google to find instructions on how to set it up.

 

It works and it's free!!

 

This is in addition to running it on a secure server

 

Can't have too many safety features
