Thanks for your attention Chris. Unfortunately, I can’t use the current version of your security plugin, since I’m stuck with WordPress 3.4.2 and ten old, compatible plugins. Maybe I should stick with the old PHP, since any of the ten plugins (not just Better WP Security) could rely on features in PHP 5.2 that were deprecated.

Peter,
thanks so much for your help and attention to this.

If nmy syntax is correct, and the plugin is compatible with other plugins I use (including a security plugin), then I don’t know why the plugin can’t find the file. I know that other users on this board had a similar problem.

Thanks Peter,
You saved me the trouble of testing version 1.2. As you said, the problem must have other reasons. Here are the top 2 reasons I suspect:
1) Hostgator uses Apache servers, but I don’t understand why Apache causes a problem for the plugin.
2) Several weeks ago, I changed the Permalink settings and I wonder if that could have broken the plugin. Does the plugin make assumptions about which Permalinks setting I am using in WordPress?

To be clear, the error that I get says file “Not Found” (404 Error).
