Htaccess hotlinker question

Paul -C- · 24 Nov 2006 at 02:22

Ok this is how you block a hotlinker:

Code:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www\.)?domain.com/.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule \.(gif|jpg)$ - [F]

But my question is what do I need to add to allow multiple domains?

Do I just repeat the

Code:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www\.)?domain.com/.*$ [NC]

line for every domain I want to allow access to?

Thanks!!

Yes, that's correct.

You can specify multiple hosts/variations on a single line to keep it concise if you wish, such as:

Code:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(forums.|www.)?website(.co.uk|.com)/ [NC]

The pipe being a logical OR.
