 * I changed the server from Microsoft IIS with classic asp to unix and WordPress.
   I have a set of rules to redirect old pages with a 301 code to the new pages.
   Since activation of BBQ I get error messages from Google’s webmaster tools.
 * Do you block pages with “.asp” extension?
    I do not exactly understand the syntax
   of your Whitelist plugin. Any tip? Thanks!

 * BBQ does block `.asp` because it is intended for use on PHP-based sites.
 * To whitelist, you can use the whitelist plugin with the free version, or for 
   ten bucks grab the pro version and simply uncheck to disable the pattern via 
   the plugin settings.

 * Hi Jeff
 * I did…
    I set Basic and Advanced pattern.
 * But regardless if I set “.asp” to checked or unchecked (and saved!) I get an 
   error 403.
 * Any idea?
