* hi guys,
somehow after using “add html” feature on elementor plugin, changes
cannot be saved server error (403 Forbidden). it happen only using this specific
feature, while others works fine. In order to save changes, I must delete any
html I’ve added (any iframe, etc.’) It all started about few days ago, no update
since. Any idea?
* The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fcannot-save-changes-after-any-html-code-has-inserted%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

* In case it helps others, the WF security plugin doesn’t always clean up after
itself and even when deleted can sometimes still leave behind modified php.ini,.
htaccess and “other” firewall mechanisms still enforcing security settings well
after the plugin has been removed.
* Another one that I cam across w/ WF security is when my client had one WP site
nested within the folder structure of the primary domain which was also running
WP and using WF and it was that parent site’s WF settings that were effecting
the child site that had no traces of the WF plugin ever being installed.

* Thanks very much for this thread, saved me a lot of time and frustration. I received
the Server Error 403 Forbidden on a couple of my Elementor pages when updating,
although other pages were fine. I deactivated Wordfence, and the changes were
saved. Cheers!
