Hi Danny,

Thanks for your response.

I’ve tested again and I’m getting the same lower score with the plugin activated. The plugin looks great and I see there is only one extra request, that said, I trust Pingdom is seeing something I am not.

Links to two screenshots are below.

With plugin: https://salmonds.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/with.png

Without plugin: https://salmonds.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/without.png

Both tests were tested from Amsterdam.

(salmonds is a testing site)

Hopefully this proves helpful and it’s an easy fix.

Kind regards,

David

Thanks @songdogtech.

Your solution worked a treat! ??

I fixed my issue by deselecting “Remove write permissions from .htaccess and wp-config.php” under the “Tweeks” tab in Better WP Security plugin setting options.

Hope this helps someone.
