Frequently Asked Questions
What is an .htaccess file?
An .htaccess file is a configuration file used by Apache web servers. It allows you to control URL redirects, access restrictions, caching, compression, and security headers without modifying the main server configuration.
Where should I place the .htaccess file?
Place the .htaccess file in the root directory of your website (the same directory as your index.html or index.php). Rules apply to the directory where the file is located and all subdirectories.
Does .htaccess work with Nginx?
No. The .htaccess format is specific to Apache web servers. Nginx uses a different configuration syntax. However, many of the same features (redirects, headers, caching) can be configured in Nginx differently.
Can I use multiple rules together?
Yes. You can enable any combination of rules. The generator combines them into a single .htaccess file with proper ordering and comments for each section.
