 * Never edit files via appearance->editor. Download them via FTP, edit them (after
   making a copy of what you downloaded), then upload.

 * I know that.
    I need a WORDPRESS editor for small fixes. Thinking the problem
   is not in WordPress, but the problem in hosting.

 * The problem is for sure in the hosting provider. I checked the old version of
   WordPress 4.6.1 – there also works a redirect – when I try to edit with “WORDPRESS
   editor”
