Any update to this yet? We are also having issues with the forbidden message with one of our websites.

I had the same issue. I switched to PHPMailer and it solved. Please update plugin to work with PostSMTP again. We are checking our other sites using the plugin.

It is actually about 15 sites having issues. All WordPress and using at least PHP 7.4. I apologize, it seemed like all the website as the errors are happening over and over for various causes sending hundreds of emails. The 2 files causing the issues are these according to the error reports stack trace.

Message: Uncaught Error: Class ‘get_cms_hashes’ not found in /home/xxxx/public_html/wp-content/plugins/security-malware-firewall/lib/CleantalkSP/SpbctWP/DB/DbDataConverter.php:47

File: /home/xxxx/public_html/wp-content/plugins/security-malware-firewall/lib/CleantalkSP/SpbctWP/DB/DbDataConverter.php

Others say this:

Message: Uncaught RuntimeException: Index invalid or out of range in /home/xxxx/public_html/wp-content/plugins/security-malware-firewall/lib/CleantalkSP/SpbctWP/Scanner/Heuristic/Variables.php:134

File: /home/xxxx/public_html/wp-content/plugins/security-malware-firewall/lib/CleantalkSP/SpbctWP/Scanner/Heuristic/Variables.php

We are also experiencing the same problem. If we manually purge cache, all is fine. Then after some time, not sure when or why it happens, the site gets messed up again. We are an agency and have many sites this is happening to. Very frustrating and time consuming. We do have automatic updates enabled and were wondering if lscache is not purging after plugin, theme or core updates since there seems to be a plugin or core update everyday. Example: I just went to (2) of our websites we fixed yesterday because this morning we were notified they had a couple of plugins updated. The sites are now messed up again. I logged in again and manually purged cache again, now all good.
On another note, I seem to remember this happening before the 5.3 update on a few of the websites so I wonder how many versions back this was happening on.

Thanks for such a quick reply but I failed to mention it is in child theme and has been for many years. It is simply not a choice in the settings any more. It appears that after the update 11 hours ago it defaulted back to original simple template with no other choice available.

Update has broken my site also. I turned off litespeed cache but after purge it did not fix. I temp fixed by deactivating plugin. I would really like to activate the plugin. It was working great with our litespeed server.
