Phoca font and enhanced .htaccess security

Post by byrozen »

Hi Jan,

First, many thanks for this great plugin (the only one of its kind, I think, available on Joomla)!

I installed the component and plugin fine and have managed to successfully create new fonts for use, which installed and displayed correctly, until now...

I've been playing about with the .htaccess file, adding some of the suggested security rules outlined in http://docs.joomla.org/Htaccess_example ... ccess_file

Since doing so, however, none of my custom fonts are being displayed. After searching through some of the existing topics for Phoca Gallery (I could find very little with regard to Phoca Font), I eventually decided to attempt to write two custom rules, as follows:

Code: Select all

## Allow PhocaFont
RewriteRule ^administrator/components/com_phocafont\.php$ - [L]
RewriteRule ^plugins/system/phocafont\.php$ - [L]


Unfortunately, however, this does not seem to have had any effect whatsoever.

Are you familiar with the suggested htaccess file and, if so, do you perhaps have any idea what could be blocking the component or plugin?

Again, many thanks for the great extension. Any help is appreciated! :-)

Hi, no, unfortunatelly no experiences with such rules for the fonts in .htaccess :-( :-( So cannot give any specific advice there :-(

No problem. I'll try seeking help elsewhere and will post back if I can find a solution...

Can you tell me, does the plugin require direct access to any php files or front-end access to any of the core joomla folders?

Thanks for any info :)

Hi, you can see the header of the plugin, if it includes the core component php files.
