Edit .htaccess and Nginx rules safely (Pro)

Change your server rules with a syntax check, a backup of every version and an automatic undo if the site stops answering.

  1. Open Server rules

    Go to SEO, Tools, Server rules (.htaccess). You see the rules file your server reads.

    Open Server rules
  2. Edit and check

    Change the rules and press Check the rules. Mistakes are listed by line before anything is saved.

    Edit and check
  3. Save the rules

    Every save keeps a backup. If your home page, login or admin stop answering after the change, the previous rules go back by themselves.

    Save the rules
  4. Put a backup back

    Under Backups, choose a backup and press Put this backup back.
