Block public access to DEV environment

If we would like to have our DEV environment restricted from being accessed from the public, what are our options, and what would be your recommended approach?

Hi Sejr,

No problem – most LiveWhale sites already have a module called “lockout” in /livewhale/client/modules/lockout/ and inside the contained .php file is an “is_enabled” flag that can be flipped from false to true. This sends all front-end traffic to the LW login page and prevents logged-out users from seeing the site (unless the module is configured to allow it). You can check out if you already have a module like that to enable, or if you run into questions or issues feel free to submit a Help Request and we can pop the lockout module on your dev site at no charge.

Thank you, Karl for the information. I’ll take a look and see if the module is there.

Take care,
Sej
