With an .htaccess file, you can determine how the web server that addresses the requests to your web sites must act in various occasions. This is a text file with directives that are performed when someone tries to open your site and what happens next will depend on the content of the file. As an example, you may block a certain IP address from opening your website, which means that the server will decline the visitor’s request, or you can forward your domain to another URL, so the server will direct the visitor to the new web address. You can also use customized error pages or preserve any part of your website with a password, if you place an .htaccess file in the correct folder. Many widely used script-driven apps, like Drupal™, Joomla™ and WordPress, use an .htaccess file to function properly.
