 * My website functions normally, when I try to change the settings I always get
   a 403 error page. The data is saved but I keep getting the error page after it.
 * I even get the error if I just open (**GET**) “wp-admin/options-general.php?settings-
   updated=true”. When I try “wp-admin/options-general.php” it works fine.
 * Anyone has any ideas?
