Hello,

Sometimes i allow to other peoples to have a restricted time super User password to my backend (to fix errors, to reinstall extensions with problem, to fix issues in backend).

I would like to know :
How to forbid the access to the "Akeeba Backup Backend" page only (because i m ok that the developpers fix errors in my site but don't agree to leave the developpers make a backup of my site).
(because there isn't "Password Protection" for "akeeba backup Pro" page like in "Admin Tools Pro")
Thanks for your help

Best Regards
Arnaud

Arnaud,

I could not get this to work through Admin Tools. But many hosts will allow you to password protect a folder through the cPanel interface. If you password protected the /administrator/components/com_akeeba folder, that should do what you want. This would create an .htaccess file in that folder and an .htpasswd file somewhere else. Exactly where the .htpasswd file is created varies by host and cPanel version. The .htaccess file is the important one. You could just delete it via FTP to stop the password protection.

It Works!!
Many Thanks
Best regards
Arnaud
