I need to password protect a directory with .htaccess, which I have successfully done. But the front end of the website was programmed to link to images within this password protected directory (not by me), but when a webpage tries to access those images it prompts the user to login.
Is it possible to password protect that directory, but allow any access to any image file type like *.jpg and *.gif?
My current .htaccess code is this:
AuthName "Secure Area"
AuthUserFile "/home/siteuser/.htpasswds/public_html/admin/passwd"
AuthType Basic
require valid-user
Thanks for any help!

Go to File > Save as > Select save option as PDF. Select the “More options” link underneath the file format box, then select the “Options” button from the box that pops up. Select the “Encrypt document with a password option,” then enter a password (twice) as prompted.
htaccess and . htpasswd files are protected from all external access. This is super important because you do not want anyone or anything to access these sensitive and powerful files. If you are unsure, or just want to be extra secure, continue reading to learn how to protect all of your .
AuthName "Secure Area"
AuthUserFile "/home/siteuser/.htpasswds/public_html/admin/passwd"
AuthType Basic
require valid-user
<FilesMatch "\.(png|jpe?g|gif)$">
