You can install Astra Website Protection on HTML websites, with a few modifications.

Step 1 - Update the .htaccess file


Since the plugin is dynamic in nature and is written in PHP, we need to instruct the web-server to treat all the HTML files as PHP. This can be done by adding the following code in your .htaccess file.

PHP 5.6

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php56 .php .htm .html

PHP 7.0

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php70 .php .htm .html

PHP 7.1

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php71 .php .htm .html

PHP 7.2

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php72 .php .htm .html

PHP 7.3

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php73 .php .htm .html

PHP 7.4

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php74 .php .htm .html



Step 2 - Install Astra Website Protection


Now we need to install the protection on your server. Follow this guide on installing Astra Website Protection without a plugin.
