One of my sites: https://www.alkydigger.net/ is having an issue with all of the store pages. The basic site itself is up and running (WordPress); however all of the store pages come with a:
Error 403 - Forbidden
You don't have permission to access the requested resource. Please contact the web site owner for further assistance.
This same thing happened about two weeks ago and one of their IT people got it working by doing the following (here is their email to me):
I got the Alky backoffice working.
Kelly, I reset file and folder permissions under the public_html root folder but it did not get it working. I had to delete the htaccess file completely to
get it back up and running. However, can you double check to see if any of the settings in this file is needed for the site to work properly? If there is a setting or 2 needed, I can recreate the file with the settings that need to be in there.
Here is the syntax of the .htaccess file
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
<FilesMatch ".*\.(phtml|php|PhP|php5|suspected)$">
Order Allow,Deny
Deny from all
</FilesMatch>
<FilesMatch "(index).php$">
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
</FilesMatch>
# END WordPress
No changes were made on my end and no updates recently of either WordPress or any plugins.
Can anyone tell me why this would happen and what could be causing it?
