determining if .htaccess is working
- by Toc
Following some guide on the web, I have created the following .htaccess for my WordPress installation:
# protect the htaccess file
<files .htaccess>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</files>
# protect wpconfig.php
<files wp-config.php>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</files>
plus chmod wp-config.php 600 and .htaccess 644.
Which is the simplest way I can test if it is working properly? In case, I can create some other files to verify the work. I only want to be sure.
