Thanks

Have to admit to hacking the CSS in the SASS folder.

I have exactly the same issue after a recent update.

So, I need to start again?

Apologies, I found the answer thanks to 1-jah’s tip about anchors.

The bottom post worked perfectly for me.

Thanks James,

I can see why that may look like the root cause and makes perfect sense apart form the fact my other WordPress sites were unaffected.

I have the site back up and running and it was permissions after all.

I applied a different set of permissions for a shared server that found on anther thread and it all started coming back.
I wonder if the EWWWW IO optimisation could have set the permissions differently somehow??

I’ve gradually been re-enabling my plugins and putting back the HTACCESS files. so far so good.

I think I have it working again now.
I’ll update in a moment.

Thank you for responding. I keep looking at it and scratching my head.

My host is 1&1 (yes I know not the best for WordPress, but been okay for my sites for the last few years) and I haven’t enabled anything with 1&1 in the background.
Like I say I have another two WP sites on the same host and not experiencing any problems. I’ll double check the 1&1 control panel to see if there is anything.

The only security plugin I had enabled was Sucuri Security and also using Jetpack for a few things.

And Yes getting 403 Forbidden with the detail “Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.”

Going to have a look now.
thank you

Thank you for the response.

I want to make it as easy as possible for the user.
Letting them loose on the dashboard might be dangerous as they would panic at having to create a new post, so ideally I would like to automate as much as I can.
