Question:
My website (or a certain subfolder or area) of my site is prompting for a login/password, and it shouldn't....
Answer:
Two things can cause prompting... and you can tell which one it is, by the text in the actual login prompt window....
-
If the prompt is "Welcome to something", this is definitely a protectedURL setting. The "something" may change (based on the ProtectedURL realm text settings, but a ProtectedURL login prompt will always include the words Welcome to....
-
To resolve, log into your control panel, click on your domain, click the ProtectedURL icon, and review the settings you've set there. If you still can't resolve it, submit a support request and our team will gladly help.
-
If the prompt does not contain "Welcome to", and simply has either "yourdomain.com" or "connecting to yourdomain.com", then the problem is that the file you're trying to access ( www.mydomain.com/afolder/myfile.html, for example) doesn't have proper permissions properly set.
