    Hi Enfold users,
    I often use Lightroom to create a folder of HTML pages to show clients their 100’s photographs. I upload it to my site using FTP and they access it by going to my site and adding a forward slash and then their name.

    But I have no way to know when and how often they look at these pages and wondering if there is a plugin or other technique?

    Any ideas out there to fulfill such a photographer’s need?

    Thanks,

    Gb

    Hey gb,

    I’m not sure exactly what you are looking for, or if it’s possible. Could you try to explain the problem a bit further please? Also, the html pages you are referring to, are they created in WordPress or are they uploaded manually?

    Best regards,
    Rikard

    Hey Rikard,

    Sure, essentially I am looking for what could be described as a workflow solution for photographers. I use lightroom to process photo shoots and then to share them with clients, I export them with lightroom which creates a folder of images and html pages. Then I upload them into a public folder of my site and share the link with the client, like this for example: https://www.gregorybeylerian.com/clientshoot/gabanddan12420/

    I am looking for a better way that would be integrated into my web site so the images are viewed within my site with the name and Nav bar above and even have password login capability that could notify me each time someone logs in to view the images.

    Does anything like this exist for Enfold, or a plugin to add such capability?

    Thanks,

    Hi,

    Thanks for the clarification. There’s nothing like that in the theme by default unfortunately, and I’m not aware of any plugins which would add such functionality either. Since you are doing this outside of WordPress, I don’t think there are any WordPress solutions available.

    I did a search for your problem though, you might find solutions in the results. Please see private.

    Best regards,
    Rikard

    if you are on an apache server you can do that with htaccess file in that folder and the common solution
    have a look here : https://help.dreamhost.com/hc/en-us/articles/216363187-Password-protecting-your-site-with-an-htaccess-file

    there are a few htacces / htpasswd generators online
    both files ( the are invisible files with a dot in front: .htaccess / .htpasswd ) had to be uploaded to the concerning folder via ftp.
    a .htaccess file f.e. looks like this:

    AuthType Basic
AuthName "Password needed"
AuthUserFile /absolute-server-path-to/.htpasswd
Require valid-user

    the path is the unix path . On your ftp client you can determine it via context menu of .htpasswd
