Hi,
I have been using Admin Tools for years and I love it and never missed my subscription. The reason I am starting this support is, if it is possible to restrict the entire website using Admin Tools that only certain IP addresses can access the site?

I really Appreciate your help.

Best,
Amir

Amir,

That wouldn't be something that Admin Tools could help you with. But it would be a very simple manual addition to your .htaccess file. I searched for "allow from IP" and found several examples of the series of command you would need to add.

When you get it working, you would need to move the block of commands to your .htaccess Maker in the Custom Code at the beginning of file block. That way, when you regenerate your .htaccess file you won't lose the restriction because the code was overwritten.
