Getting 404 Error When Attempting to Preview Drafts

  • Hi All,

    So i have my blog https://www.press.flavourfull.ca and everything was fine until, I think, I installed WangGuard for all those sploggers.

    I did a bunch of stuff in my dashboard some of which explicitly stated it would mess up things potentially.

    I am now today trying to write and I cannot see previews. I checked previous posts on this issue and I followed the advice here and now when I try to preview I get a message saying that I do not have the permission to view drafts.

    I edited the .htaccess file from this

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    to this

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    ErrorDocument 404 /index.php?error=404
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    And now I apparently don’t have permission. I am completely new to this and every other word is a term I don’t know so please be considerate of that.

    Many thanks,
