    Wordpress wp-admin folder Error 401 - how to fix

    make money with your web site
    How to fix error 401 (Unauthorized) in Wordpress admin folder (wp-admin) ?

    I think it has to do with .htaccess files or with password protect directory function.

    I fixed it by adding ".htaccess" file into wp-admin folder (or into any folder in lower level)
    and into .htaccess add this:

    Code:
    AuthName "WordPress"
    AuthType Basic
