Adding website password on a local hosted site #6

Adding website password on a local hosted site

I am hosting the website from this repository on a private linux server with nginx.

The website is loding normally but I can't log in because now I have no way to define a password because I am hosting it locally and I don't have the option to create a GitHub secret. I also have Gitea installed if that helps? (I am a bit new to this scene)

So How could I define a password to use the website and is there any way to link the website to Gitea? (Hosting it directly with Gitea not nginx)

Thank's for you're help in advance!

This repo enables free hosting of password protected websites using Github pages. If you just want to encrypt a page, check staticrypt. That's what we use here as well and you can also directly input a password instead of taking the Github secret value.

Hope this helps!
