 * I am getting this error
 * _Forbidden_
 * You don’t have permission to access /wp-admin/post.php on this server.
 * everytime I try to edit a certain page and a certain post.
 * I am not the one who made the entire thing. We had a web developer before. After
   they uploaded the website, we’ve decided to not get their service anymore but
   they hand us over a manual that is “user friendly”. It is useful. I was able 
   to uplaod the photos and edit the contents of the website, not until errors are
   coming up. I don’t know how to fix errors. Do I need to fix the source code? 
   What will I do? T_T
 * Please help me, will you? Thanks

 * Hey there,
 * So this only happens on a specific page and specific post?
 * What’s different between those and other pages and posts that work fine?
 * Perhaps some plugin?
 * If that’s the case then you could test by disabling all your plugins and loading
   the page or post again.
 * 403 is the server denying access for some reason, you could check your htaccess
   to ensure it matches something like:
 * [http://codex.wordpress.org/htaccess](http://codex.wordpress.org/htaccess)
 * Some plugins might alter the htaccess just wanted to mention that so you know.
   Plugins like cache ones might.
 * Take care.

 * Hello there!
 * Yes, this only happens in specific page and post.
 * I can’t seem to figure out the diffrence. I’m a a newbie and I kind of getting
   the hang of editing (uploading the photos and texts), but when it comes to source
   codes, I’m terrible.
 * Where can I find the htacess? Is it where the codes are? Shall I contact the 
   developer? Or anyone with IT background can help me with this? Thanks
 * \thank you for replying to my post.
 * Best,
 * ~Jam

 * Hey there,
 * You’ll either need FTP or if you’re on cPanel (or similar) you can use the file
   manager. The file is in the root of your website and should look like this (check
   the right version):
 * [http://codex.wordpress.org/htaccess](http://codex.wordpress.org/htaccess)
 * Did you try disabling all your plugins to see if one of those was causing this?
 * I’d definitely chat with your host too, they should be able to help.
 * Take care.
