    I have set up a password protected directory via the cpanel for my website.
    But the problem is once someone clicks on a link in that directory after logging in, it then requires them to login again to go to the next page. Anyone know how to fix this?

    thankyou.

    Do you have multiple directories protected? If you're in one directory and a page is calling some file, image, whatever from another directory that's pass protected as well, the issue you describe could happen.
