Hello, Im trying to play with my newly installed amember. Ive added a user (manually) with a username and password and created a product. When I try to navigate to the url of the product it asks me for a username and password, then instead of navigating to the page it gives me a forbidden 403 error message? Any help would be appreciated, Im sure im almost there.....
Are you using new rewrite or htpasswd protection? I suggest new_rewrite. Double check to make sure the protect folder permission is for the product you added to that user. David
Possible there is no index.html file in your protected folder and your server does not allow directory listings. So, create index.html inside that folder.
thanks there was no index.html file in that folder and I had the wrong URL but now my problem im dealing with is the html file is the only thing rendering. Im only using this page as a test before i actually protect the folders I actually want to protect, but my site is almost entirely php and i dont see any php files in the protection wizard when i try to protect a new folder. any help would be appreciated. thanks.
You protect the full directory- not individual files. If you want to protect specific php files, use the php_include method. David
ok got it to render the entire php file. looks perfect until you click on a link and navigates you to a blank white page. The URL on the address bar is correct just not showing. I have the entire directory protected but the only file that gets displayed is the index.php. Ive tried changing the protect method. Im researching and i keep running into solutions that include changing the .htaccess file? but im not getting an error message on these pages? just white pages....all files are on directory and links are updated. thanks in advance.
