Updating WordPress Permalinks & mod_rewrite rules
-
Hi, I use the BulletProof Security plugin for a while, and today I updated the WordPress permalinks. After that my WP admin said that I should have included the mod_rewrite rules manually, as the .htaccess file wasn’t writable.
I inserted this code into Bulletproof’s secure .htaccess:<IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule>
After I uploaded it to the server, the secure BProof .htaccess file changed back to the default WP .htaccess file with the new mod_rewrite rules. Then I clicked the AutoMagic buttons again,
activated the secure .htaccess files for the root & the wp-admin folders, but the warning about the missing mod_rewrite rules reappeared in WP admin area’s Permalink Settings.Now it seems either I keep the Bulletproof secure .htaccess without the new mod_rewrite rules, or I lose the settings of the BProof Security Mode.
Could you please give me a hint where I should exactly insert the mod_rewrite rules, or what else should I do?
Sorry if I’m annoying, I read the FAQ and some of the support forum, but unfortunately I couldn’t figure out the solution by myself.
