In reply to: [BulletProof Security] BPS Alert: what to do?I had done it already manually, so next time I can go on the Edit/Upload/Download page and use the Lock button to change permissions.
Now I have the following message in blue fonts:
Your root .htaccess file is Locked with Read Only Permissions.
Use the Lock and Unlock buttons below to Lock or Unlock your root .htaccess file for editing.
Cannot write to file: /home3/website/public_html/wp-admin/.htaccess.
Is it OK?Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [BulletProof Security] BPS Alert: what to do?So in the case I run into this issue again, I will just have to activate Root folder, and not wp-admin folder ? Right now I have to change the permission for .htaccess, so please stay tuned for a while.

In reply to: [BulletProof Security] BPS Alert: what to do?4. Done. I had a warning message before activating the BulletProof Mode, asking about AutoMagic buttons, backup of .htaccess files and custom .htaccess code. And an other one after saying that BulletProof Mode must also be activated for the wp-admin folder. Then I activated the plugins as you said and all went well, no alert anymore. Is that all? Thank you very much for your help!
