Editing an .htaccess File

Monday, May 12, 2003 Articles, Tips Comments Off on Editing an .htaccess File

There are numerous ways to go about in editing an .htaccess file.

On Microsoft Windows
* Edit the file with Microsoft Notepad then upload via SFTP/FTP.
* Use WinSCP and the Edit Mode feature.
* Use SSH and any text editor.
* Use the File Manager in cPanel.

On Apple macOS
* Edit the file with TextEdit then upload via SFTP/FTP.
* Use the File Manager in cPanel.

In my opinion, the easiest way to edit a .htaccess file for novices is through the File Manager in cPanel but you must remember to make a backup for editing.
