Cannot delete previously added Whitelisted PHP Files

    A previous admin had whitelisted *.php in wp-content/uploads. I want to delete that whitelist entry. However, when I check the box next to the entry and then click the Delete button, the page reloads but the entry is still there.

    What am I doing wrong?

  • Hello @monachuslex

    I just tested the plugin and it is working as intended [1].

    It’s possible that the rules were added to the “.htaccess” file manually, in this case you’ll have to remove them manually as well. Or maybe the file permissions have changed since the last time the whitelist was modified, maybe the file is not writable anymore and that’s why the removal is not working.

    You can modify the this file [2] using an (S)FTP client.
