Default .htaccess files

In the event you need to restore the default .htaccess file for a specific content management system (CMS) script, such as WordPress or Joomla, you can use the code provided within this section to directly copy into your .htaccess file.

Note: If the .htaccess file is coded incorrectly, it can cause the website to have errors.Before you make any changes to your .htaccess file, we strongly recommend creating a full backup of your files. For additional information on how to generate a full backup, please refer to the following article:Backup
