Not able to sign into a password protected area on my website - 500 error code

Hi there,

I made a password protected directory on my website, made a account and when i put in the correct password, im unable to sign in and im greeted by a Applicaton error 500, im at a lost. Please help.

The files im using for the password protection are .htaccess and .htpasswd

Did you create a password protected page via the members area?

Nope, never knew there was such a thing.

You there? this is kinda important

Yes, I am here. If you go into your control panel, there will be an option under “Settings”. :wink:

Pretty vague explanation, i went to manage website, settings, general and i don’t see anything.

wait up, may of found it, is it in security?

Yes. Go there and set the password. :wink:

Added a password, now when i log in im just in a loop of logging in again. :confused:

Nevermind, it works thanks!

Sure! No problem! Glad it’s now resolved. :slight_smile:
