 * Hey [@momo-fr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/momo-fr/)
 * There were no changes in the last update which should be affecting this, and 
   generally speaking, the 403 error indicates a connectivity issue and not necessarily
   something MainWP-specific.
 * From past experience, 403 errors can be caused by Cloudflare or server side security
   rules such as Imunify360, mod_security, ImmunifyAV, server-side firewalls.
 * Please open a private Help Desk ticket and we will try determining what security
   rule is blocking the connection: [https://mainwp.com/my-account/get-support/](https://mainwp.com/my-account/get-support/)
