Just Paste and save the file
Step 5 :
Next create a .htaccess file inside /home/username/public_html/wp-admin/
and insert the below codes
# SQUAREBROTHERS .47.1 WP-ADMIN SECURE .HTACCESS
# If you edit the SQUAREBROTHERS .47.1 WP-ADMIN SECURE .HTACCESS text above # you will see error messages on the BPS Security Status page # BPS is reading the version number in the htaccess file to validate checks # BPS is also checking that the string BPSQSE exists in this file - do not delete it # If you would like to change what is displayed above you # will need to edit the BPS functions.php file to match your changes # For more info see the BPS Guide at AIT-pro.com
# DO NOT ADD URL REWRITING IN THIS FILE OR WORDPRESS WILL BREAK # RewriteRule ^(.*)$ - [F,L] - works in /wp-admin without breaking WordPress # RewriteRule . /index.php [L] - will break WordPress
<FilesMatch "^(install\.php|example\.php|example2\.php|example3\.php)"> Order allow,deny Deny from all #Allow from 88.77.66.55 </FilesMatch>
