thanks but that aint got the issue i got: setup specific htaccess options for a folder of my website.

**directfiesta** · 02-14-2005, 09:08 AM

Aren't all subfolders subject to the " top " htaccess file ???

So you couldn;t be LESS restrictive, but MORE restrictive in subfolders....

????

take the htaccess out of your root - drop it in the folder/s you want to protect

then drop the other htaccess file with the fusker url and drop that into the other folder you want to protect from fusker

aha ! well i knew there was something about subfolders etc., i read it somewhere but didnt knew the site anymore... so thanks for the tips, im gonna try it right now.

fuck this is a lil more complicated then i thought... i have to think backwards and shit.. damn... testing some shit out now tho...

Place a blank .htaccess file in the folder you want no restrictions on.

Should work...

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^.*fusker.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^.*usefulidiot.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule \.(jpe?g|gif|bmp|png)$ /test/hotlinkimg-d.gif [L]

There should be an OR in all the RewriteCond's except that last one.

this kinda misses the point im making i think? This has nothing to do with working with folders, this is just the code itself...
And the code itself is working, the OR in it doesnt matter... thanks ne way for you input hehe...

anyway, I think its working properly now... let me give u my site structure to show what ive done and what id like:

LEVEL 1 - ROOT FOLDER
htaccess file with only 404 and 403 redirection in it

LEVEL 2 - FOLDER 1, FOLDER 2, FOLDER 3
folder 1: htaccess with anti hotlinking from all sites
folder 2: htaccess with anti hotlinking from all sites
folder 3: htaccess without anti hotlinking, except fusker and usefulidiot

^^^ this seems to work, but that are alot htaccess files...

A question to Project-Shadow: so when i put the anti hotlink in the root again, and just a blank htaccess in 'folder 3', it accepts hotlinking from files in folder 3? But what if i only wanna block fusker in folder 3? Is there another way to do that then what i just did?

You stick it IN the folder you are talking about (folder 3 according to your example)

The OR matters a lot.

I just use proxypass... they take care of everything and you don't have to do anything at all for $50 =)

**swedguy** · 02-14-2005, 10:10 AM

Lets make a test. I have a folder open for all hotlinking, except from gfy.com.

You should see a pair of boobies below if you look at this thread from gofuckyourself.com

If you look at the same thread from gfy.com, you should see a pink Elephant

EDIT: Remember to clear your cache, otherwise you will still see the boobs.

yes, im sorry i been working on this for the past 5 hours and im getting a lil slow and very irritated...

The good news from my other post that it works now is bullshit, i did a lil testing and its still fucked up.

I did see your test, with the boobies and the pink elephant. Im gonna change my file and test it later on, im gonna take a break now im kinda fed up with this shit...
thanks for your reply

**swedguy** · 02-14-2005, 10:48 AM

If it wasn't clear before, you will only get the pink elephant when the hotlink protection kicks in (for example from the fusker sites)

I used the same htaccess as I posted above.

What the OR does is exactly like in the English language.

If site is "fusker" OR "usefulidiot" OR "hotlinker2" OR "hotlinker3", redirect them to /test/hotlinkimg-d.gif

**nico-t** · 02-14-2005, 01:26 PM

holy shit i think its working now...
what i did:

I put this htaccess file in the root directory:

Code:

ErrorDocument 404 http://www.mydomain.com/404.html
ErrorDocument 403 http://www.mydomain.com/404.html

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www\.)?mydomain\.com/ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^.*msn\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^.*yahoo\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^.*altavista\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^.*google\. [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^.*webcrawler\. [NC]
RewriteRule \.(jpe?g|gif|bmp|png)$ des/test/hotlinkimg-d.gif [L]

And i put this htaccess file in the folder where sites can hotlink from, except for 'fusker' etc:

Code:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^.*fusker*.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^.*usefulidiot*.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule \.(jpe?g|gif|bmp|png)$ test/hotlinkimg-d.gif [L]

thanks swedguy for explaining
