If I set the type to joomla the path should be /members/
If I set an absolute path it would be /home/.jade/hpcb/homepcbuilder.com/members/
When I do this there are no errors, but the .htaccess and .htpasswd are not created in the folder.
The folder is still open. I am using a ftp program that displays .watchever files. Can someone doing support please look into this. I can give you joomla and ftp access if it helps.

The folder I need to protect is located beneath my joomla install. www.homepcbuilder.com/members
If I set the type to joomla the path should be /members/
If I set an absolute path it would be /home/.jade/hpcb/homepcbuilder.com/members/
When I do this there are no errors, but the .htaccess and .htpasswd are not created in the folder.

then just put
members
as directory, should work.
Of course folder needs to be writable by web-server.
Please feedback if that solved it

So it is kind of working. I'm going to chmod the folder to 777, it is 755 right now, which should have been good enough. I'll do some more testing and report back.

Could not post errors to this forum, got 501 error from server. Please see attached errors.txt for error 1
The first one is complaining about the .htaccess file not being there. I created a blank .htaccess file in the folder but it didn't seem to help. Don't know what to put into it.
I then created a user without the error during the creation and imported it's user id into one of the subscription plans and got these errors.
Please see attached errors.txt file for error 2
I also tried unpublishing and republishing the folder access plugin. Then I uninstalled and re installed it. No help though. Not sure what else to try.

Reason: no check was made to check and if need be create .htaccess for imported users
Resolution: function created to check and create if need be necessary .htaccess files in all scenarios
Status: fixed
Should be available by next release.
Keep in mind your directories need to exist PRIER to having access granted. The plugin does not create the directories. Only the .htaccess and .htpasswd files.
Mouse-over info icon next to the path in plan backend for examples. Select absolute or joomla based on your needs.
If absolute you need to provide just that. The absolute path. Example:
Localhost server with root of W:/
I want to protect the folder test in my root.
Path: W:/test
