 * I keep getting this error message now when trying to use Embedly. I worked perfectly
   before.
 * Forbidden
 * You don’t have permission to access /wp-content/plugins/embedly/tinymce/ on this
   server.
 * Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument
   to handle the request.
 * Using WP 3.6.1 and Avada Theme

 * Permission errors are a little tricky, they could be per system. If you haven’t,
   send a note to [support@embed.ly](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/forbidden-error-message/support@embed.ly?output_format=md),
   we’ll try to help troubleshoot.

 * An update on this issue for others, we’ve found that CloudFlare’s rocketloader
   was preventing certain javascript files from being loaded. If you experience 
   this behavior try disabling and testing.

 * hmm, so what exactly needs to be disabled? Why?
 * I use cloudflare, but just the basic free portion as it helps secure my sites.
   But nothing fancy.

 * Rocketloader (async js loader) doesn’t load the plugins javascript files correctly.
   We’ve added in markup to tell it not to try and load them. Should be available
   in version 2.2.2 of the Embedly plugin. If you experience issues make sure you
   clear your browser cache to get the new files. Shoot a note [support@embed.ly](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/forbidden-error-message/support@embed.ly?output_format=md)
   if all else fails.

 * One site gets past the preview, but does this when I try to save or publish:
 * >>>>>>>>>>> 403 GET or Other Request Error Logged – November 9, 2013 – 11:41

 * AND the other site wont preview the url with the embedly plugin, so cant even
   embed it into post to try and save/publish. And it does not leave an error in
   the log file.
 * Video demo of what happens shown here:
    [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QpQ05EEBddc](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QpQ05EEBddc)
 * And I contacted embedly at the support email address about a month ago with no
   response.

 * If you want to debug yourself you can try disabling some of your plugins temporarily
   to see if there is a conflict. If you re-send a note to [support@embed.ly](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/forbidden-error-message/support@embed.ly?output_format=md),
   I will watch for your email.
