Error

This simply means that the default WordPress Rewrite code was found in your root htaccess file, but your root htaccess file is locked so the mistake cannot be automatically fixed by BPS. At some point we will automatically unlock the root htaccess file, fix this mistake and lock the root htaccess file again.

Do these steps to solve the issue:
1. Unlock your root htaccess file on the htaccess File Editor tab page.
2. Go to BPS Custom Code and delete the default WordPress Rewrite code (shown below) if it exists in any of the BPS Custom Code text boxes.
3. Click the Save Root Custom Code button.
4. Go to the BPS Security Modes page, click the Create secure.htaccess File AutoMagic button and activate Root folder BulletProof Mode.

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

Problem was solved by deleting the .htaccess file, and rebuilding it using your tool.

Nice try on the interface cleanup, but it is still terrible.

If the majority of your users are turning on everything, just make it one button. That’s what we do on our 1and1 host. We don’t need a million option, so keep them if someone really needs them, but take a lesson from ithemes’ security interface.

We would be foolish to think that everyone will be happy with all of the visual option choices in BPS (UI Theme Skins and other visual things) or other options or things in general. You shoot for maximum appeal to the widest possible audience and understand that 100% appeal is never going to happen with anything – anywhere in the 90% to 99% range is fine by us. ?? We looked at the ithemes interface, but ironically to us it is less logical/functional overall and not appealing to any of us. ?? oh well some people like X, some people like Y and some people like Z – just how it is.
