YouStable offers cPanel full version to the registered users so that you can get the most out of the features. cPanel offers a .htaccess file, and you have the power to block IP addresses.
First, we are going to show you, how you can access the cPanel and reach the .htaccess file.
Step 1: Log in to the cPanel by adding (domain.com/cpanel) and then hit enter. If you have forgotten the credentials, then open the email client associated with the YouStable account because we send a copy of the credentials to the registered email as well.
Step 2: In the search bar, type “file manager” and select the first result.
Step 3: Double-click on the “public_html” and then it will take you one step closer to completing the process.
Step 4: cPanel hides the file, so you have to click on the “settings” located on the same page at the top, and a pop-up appears on your screen.
Step 5: Click on “show hidden files” and then click on “save” to complete the process.
Step 6: Now, select the .htaccess file, and right-mouse click to view more options, and click on “edit” it.
Step 7: The confirmation pop-up shows up, and click on “edit” to proceed.
Step 8: The .htaccess file is now editable.
Step 9: Go to the IPDENY site to copy the IP address of specific country, and click on “download zone file” to download a text file, or you can click on “aggregated zone file” to view the IP address in another window.
Step 10: Okay, now you have to follow the order from the codes below.
(order allow,
deny
deny from http://27.116.56.0/22
deny from http://58.147.128.0/19

order allow,
deny deny from http://27.116.56.0/22
