What is an .htaccess file?

The .htaccess (Hypertext Access) file is a powerful configuration file used by Apache web servers. It allows you to control directory-level settings without altering the main server configuration files. With this file, you can manage redirects, protect passwords, enable file compression, block IP addresses, and much more.

Why use this generator?

Writing .htaccess syntax manually can be tricky. A single misplaced character can cause a "500 Internal Server Error" and take your site offline. This tool generates clean, syntax-correct code for the most common website requirements, ensuring your site remains secure and optimized.
