Hi Danny,
Thanks for your response.
I’ve tested again and I’m getting the same lower score with the plugin activated. The plugin looks great and I see there is only one extra request, that said, I trust Pingdom is seeing something I am not.
Links to two screenshots are below.
With plugin: http://salmonds.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/with.png
Without plugin: http://salmonds.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/without.png
Both tests were tested from Amsterdam.
(salmonds is a testing site)
Hopefully this proves helpful and it’s an easy fix.
Kind regards,
David
Thanks @songdogtech.
Your solution worked a treat! 🙂
I fixed my issue by deselecting “Remove write permissions from .htaccess and wp-config.php” under the “Tweeks” tab in Better WP Security plugin setting options.
Hope this helps someone.
