    Hey Scott, can u possible add an Basic Auth feature to ur plugin. I cant get it to work behind an basic auth with require any.
    Require IP works fine when i test it with my browser after i added my home ip.
    I have added local and some other server ips but i still get the msg “please whitlist IP XXXX” and if i start the crawling process it does nothing.
    With an other website on the same server, but without basic auth, ur plugin works fine, so there is only a problem with the basic auth. ??
    Regards
    Dennis

    The whole point of using Simply Static is to have a secure version of the website. The original WP instance would be mostly with either white ip list or a basic auth (my case too).

    I had issue with .htaccess but sorted.

    AuthUserFile /pathtohtaccessfile/.htpasswd
    AuthName “Protected Area”
    AuthType Basic
    require valid-user
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
    Allow from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
    Satisfy any

    My issue was that it need to be capitals for Satisfy, this allows to password protect your wordpress site and allow the simply static code to access the wordpress itself without requiring login.
