    I have an entire Wordpress directory protected with aMember (NewRewrite method) but find that I need to have one specific folder within the /wp-content directory unprotected.

    Is it possible to add a rule in the htaccess file for that without messing up the rest of the protection settings?

    Thanks,
    John H.

    Hello John,

    Yes, it is possible to do. In your directory (that you want to exclude) you need to create file .htaccess with content:
    Code:
    RewriteEngine Off
    It should do the job.

    Best Regards.
