[users@httpd] How to set a password for the WordPress logging page?
Hello,
I want to set a password for the WordPress logging page and when someone visit "https://mywebsite.com/wp-admin" then Apache asks a username and password and then show the logging page. Something like https://www.tecmint.com/phpmyadmin-login-password-protection-htaccess/
If my WordPress directory is "/var/www/wp", then is below lines OK?
<Directory /var/www/wp/wp-admin/>
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Restricted Content"
AuthUserFile /etc/httpd/.htpasswd
Require valid-user
</Directory>
Thank you.

Thank you.
I added a ".WPhtpasswd" file as below:
# htpasswd -c /etc/httpd/.WPhtpasswd "Panel User"
Then, added below lines in the ".htpasswd" file under the WordPress directory:
AuthType Digest
AuthName "Password Protected"
AuthDigestDomain /wp-login.php https://www.MyWebSite.com/wp-login.php
AuthUserFile /etc/httpd/.WPhtpasswd
Require valid-user
Satisfy All
But, it asks me the username and password for visit the website and not just "wp-login.php" and when I enter my username and password then it ask them again!
Which line is incorrect?
