 * Hello.
   I’ve seen this already in the forum, but no solution for me.Trying to 
   save options and “Oops! Something went wrong while saving.”We have de-activated
   every plugin except yoast-seo and woo-commerce.
 * I can see in dev console “POST /wp-admin/options.php 403 (Forbidden)”
   andnew-
   settings.js?ver=b2006589f50e4852b40c:44 Fetch failed loading: POST {PH3}.
 * Payload is 
   option_page: wpseo_page_settings_wp_http_referer: admin.php?page=
   wpseo_page_settings_savedaction: update_wpnonce: f8d265b4dcwpseo[tracking]: truewpseo[
   toggled_tracking]: truewpseo[license_server_version]: 2wpseo[ms_defaults_set]:
   falsewpseo[ignore_search_engines_discouraged_notice]: falseetc
 * Response is
   ForbiddenYou don’t have permission to access this resource.
 * I’ve checked permissions for /wp-admin/options.php and it is 0644, just like 
   every other file in the folder.
   Driving us nuts. Any help anyone?Thank-you

 * I’m sorry about your experience. Can you let me know the version of Yoast SEO
   and WordPress you have on the site?
