[TYPO3-english] how to hide a typo3 site

[Robert Wildling]

@Tom: I like to put a 2 new sites at the very top: the first with a 
basic layout, a separat template and no menues, which just says 
"Construction Zone" or whatever. To hide the rest of the site, the 
second folder is a SysFolder that is hidden. I drag all the sites of the 
website into that SysFolder.

Definately no pro-solution, but it is one of many ways...


@Philipp: I'd like to add my 2 cents to your answer: In my opinion these 
kind of answers are of no help to anyone. To be honest: I don't even 
know why you bother to take the time to write RTFM? Obviousley you seem 
to get angry by questions like these, but I ask you: why don't you just 
ignore them? And a link to a tutorial is not a specific answer. But the 
list should be a place for specific answers.

In a long-term-view, posts like these are actually pretty annoying: we 
all know how frustrating it can be to find highly ranked entries in 
Google just to find out that there is no proper answer.

Therefore I would suggest: if someone does not want to response 
helpfully for whatever reason, just don't post anything. If, however, 
someone decides to post an answer, stick with the topic and restrain 
from any patronizing off-topic behaviour. There are beginners and there 
are pros - and the latter one need to remember that they where once 
beginners, too.

If there are good answers now, the chance increases that the post will 
be found more often and therefore questions like these asked less.

Thanks.
Robert
