How have I misconfigured basic auth for my wordpress site?

Ok editing the default-ssl.conf as described here (or in my case /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/mysite.com-le-ssl.conf) to add auth settings to the end of the Virtual Host block works fine now. So it’s now: <IfModule mod_ssl.c> <VirtualHost *:443> ServerName mysite.com ServerAlias www.mysite.com ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost DocumentRoot /var/www/mysite.com ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined Include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-apache.conf SSLCertificateFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/mysite.com/fullchain.pem SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/mysite.com/privkey.pem <Directory “/var/www/mysite.com”> … Read more

.htaccess redirects disappeared after re-saving permalinks

To reduce multiple slashes at the start of the URL-path (or in fact anywhere in the URL-path) to a single slash (there is always at least 1 slash at the start of the URL-path, even if you can’t see this is the browser’s address bar) then you can use a directive like the following: # … Read more

Error Message from W3 Total Cache when .htaccess Rules Cannot Be Modified? [closed]

From my experience with W3 Total Cache this error is triggered when the plugin cannot write to the .htaccess file.

Two domains on one WordPress Installation

I just did this on a client site.

The apache rewrite flags like QSA are hard coded, see source. Not sure why it would bother you, but if you really want to change it, then you can and should use the mod_rewrite_rules hook for that. Below an example on how to do it: add_filter( ‘mod_rewrite_rules’, ‘wpse107528_change_mod_rewrite_rules’ ); function wpse107528_change_mod_rewrite_rules( $rules ) { $pattern … Read more
