Sometimes a section of your site — a staging area, private documents, an unfinished section — needs to be hidden from the general public without a full login system.
Setting It Up in Plesk
Navigate to the specific directory under Websites & Domains, find the password protection option, and add the usernames and passwords allowed to access it.
What Visitors See
Anyone trying to access the protected folder gets a simple browser prompt asking for credentials before any content loads.
Good Use Cases
Client preview areas, internal documentation, or a staging site are all reasonable candidates — for genuinely sensitive data, a proper application-level login system is more appropriate.
