 * When saving settings in Advanced Mode I receive the following message:
 * “Bad Request
    Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.”
 * I have disabled and reinstalled the plug in and have the same issue.
 * I’m running Version 7.1.1.
 * I have contacted my host and they have looked into and haven’t found anything
   that should be causing the action on there end.
 * My error log states as follows:
 * “[01-Nov-2017 21:10:31 UTC] PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 100663296
   bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 7680 bytes) in /home/indrecor/atomicdropcast.
   com/wp-includes/media.php on line 2833”
 * I’d appreciate any help on this. I dig the app and I’m hoping to be able to use
   it.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fbad-request-when-ever-saving-settings%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * Hello [@kaegiacona](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kaegiacona/),
 * We have been working on this problem for a while and we believe we have a solution
   in our next update. If you are familiar with how to install plugins manually,
   please download this version and see if it solves the problem: [http://create.blubrry.com/wp-content/downloads/powerpress-7.2beta3.zip](http://create.blubrry.com/wp-content/downloads/powerpress-7.2beta3.zip)
 * It appears ModSecurity is blocking one of the new fields we added for iOS11, 
   either it is the itunes-title or the new itunes-nst (number, season and type)
   fields. The next update we renamed these fields to avoid ModSecurity from blocking
   them.
 * If you have the ability to turn off Mod security, that also fixes the problem.
 * Thanks,
    Angelo

 * I was unable to access Mod security to turn it off, but the manual installation
   seems to have corrected the issue.
 * Thanks!
