    Hello,

    I just updated my BPS plugin and got the warning that the website was not protected. But then the warning went away and I hadn’t changed any settings, files, or .htaccess files. But I do see this message under security status:

    “The htaccess file that is activated in your root folder is:
    BULLETPROOF .49.9 >>>>>>> SECURE .HTACCESS

    √ wp-config.php is htaccess protected by BPS
    √ php.ini and php5.ini are htaccess protected by BPS

    √ Deny All protection activated for BPS Master /htaccess folder
    √ Deny All protection activated for /wp-content/bps-backup folder

    The htaccess file that is activated in your wp-admin folder is:
    BULLETPROOF .49.9 WP-ADMIN SECURE .HTACCESS”

    and I don’t know what it means. I am particularly worried about “Deny All Protection”. Can anyone enlighten me? Thank you.

    Best Regards,

    Kelly

    P.S. I am updating to the new version of wordpress soon!

    You should be fine if the alert goes away. Everything looks good for your security status.

    What happens during the upgrade is BPS checks your root .htaccess file to make sure you have all the most current BPS security rules/filters and changes/updates whatever needs to be changed (your personal edits are not changed & your Custom Code is not changed). BPS is supposed to display “Automatic update completed successfully”, but in some cases there may be a slight lag and the error checks you saw were displayed instead. If they go away on their own then everything is ok. 😉

    The Deny All protection is completed automatatically these days and the security status has checkmarks so everything is ok.

    Assuming this answered all questions – thread has been resolved. If this did not answer all of your questions please post any additional questions you may have.
