Hi,
After Admin Tools Professional fixed permissions, Moodle which is in subdirectory in public_html directory does not load CSS/Template. Does Admin Tools Professional fix permissions within each subdirectory, is it possible that fixed permissions in Moodle directory caused this problem?
By the way, I submited review http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/access-a-security/site-security/site-protection/16363#rev-136366 :D
I apologize, my English is bad.
Thanks in advance!
All the best,
Filip
Hello Filip,
Thank you for your review!
You need to do a small adjustment in your .htaccess Maker. If you tell me which directory Moodle is located in I can give you precise instructions. The general instructions can be found here: https://www.akeebabackup.com/documentation/troubleshooter/atsubdomains.html If you can't follow them, no problem! Just tell me the name of the directory and I'll be able to help you out :)

Hi,
Moodle is in public_html/portal
I do not want to be boring, but with these small adjustments in .htaccess Maker we will "unfix" permissions for Moodle? Does that mean that Moodle will be more vulnerable?
Go to .htaccess Maker and append:
portal
to the "Front-end directories where file type exceptions are allowed". Then click on "Save and create .htaccess". This will allow media files (CSS, JS, images, ...) to be accessed under Moodle's directory.
That said, the .htaccess Maker was designed to create a .htaccess tuned to protect Joomla! websites. Each web application has a different folder structure and completely different needs. I can't promise that the generated .htaccess will do anything to protect your Moodle installation or that it won't break it in any way. I am a Joomla! developer who has written and tested a solution for Joomla!. That's all I can help you with within any degree of accuracy :)

I understand, this is Joomla! extension and was designed to work only on Joomla! sites :)
I did as you wrote, but now when I try to open (visit) Moodle site I got:
403
"ForbiddenYou don't have permission to access /portal/ on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."
But, I'll search on Google for a solution...
Thank you!
All the best,
Filip
No need to search Google, I can help you. Go to .htaccess Maker and add:
portal
to "Allow direct access, including .php files, to these directories", then click on Save and Create .htaccess.
