    Securise vbseo hiding the vbseocp?

    Hello,

    I would like an info about vbseo and how i can securise it.
    I have did some security stuffs for my vbulletin forum (still in test phase) changing for example the name of admincp folder (only i know the name) and creating other security stuffs after i've read a review on that, this way, if a hacker come he doesn't even know where access the admincp (by defaulkt everybody knows what to write to access it)
    So i would like to know if it's possible to do the same in order that nobody except me knows where the vbseocp is

    Thanks

    Unfortunately currently it is not possible. But vBSEO Control Panel is pretty safe. Only you can define the password and there is no way a hacker to gather that password.

    You can also apply .htaccess pasword protection for vBSEO CP:
    Code:
    <Files "vbseocp.php">
    AuthUserFile /path/.htpasswd
    AuthType Basic
    AuthName "vBSEP CP"
    require valid-user
    </Files>

    In addition to applying a .htaccess password as described above,
    you can limit the access to the file to your IP only by this :

    Code:
    order deny,allow
    deny from all
    allow from your.IP.address.here
