I’ll attend to some other business concerning some food. however, thanks for putting me on the right track and for your fast and engaged way of helping.

Let me know if you stumble across some useful information during your quest through sub.domain/subfolder-hell…

good night and good luck, eva

PAGE WORKS AGAIN after having “insisted” a few times to enter:
https://eva.progresstination.net/portfolio/(!WITH a “/”) at the end
in both fields:
WordPress Address (URL)
&
Site Address (URL)

(BPS deactivated & htaccess file deleted)

so I guess no BPS for subdomain-subfolder-fools like me?!

man, you are just great and awfully helpful. thank you so much!!!

uhhh, seems you’re right: something’s wrong with my URLs, cos after re-entering
“https://eva.progresstination.net/portfolio”
as my WordPress Address (URL) it tells me:
[
The Site address you entered did not appear to be a valid URL. Please enter a valid URL.
]

I’m starting to feel a bit desperate.
i installed wordpress via hostpapa and they sent me this:
[
A new installation of WordPress 3.4.2 has been completed. The details of the installation are shown below:
Path : /home/progr468/public_html/eva/portfolio
URL : https://eva.progresstination.net/portfolio
]
I never manually changed my WordPress Address (URL)…

just to make this clear:
I have a subdomain of progresstination.net called:
eva.progresstination.net (where my old flash-portfolio is visible)

i was working on my new wordpress-portfolio, which I installed under
eva.progresstination.net/portfolio. [after finishing this site I meant to simply redirect from eva.progresstination.net (my old subdomain-portfolio) to eva.progresstination.net/portfolio (new one).]

alright: WordPress Address (URL) and Site Address (URL) both say
https://eva.progresstination.net/portfolio
problably no need to enter same URL twice

ok, I’ll try to make the changes to htaccess, reads now:
[
# BULLETPROOF .47.6 >>>>>>> SECURE .HTACCESS
(…)
# DENY ACCESS TO PROTECTED SERVER FILES – .htaccess, .htpasswd and all file names starting with dot
RedirectMatch 403 /\..*$

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /portfolio/
RewriteRule ^wp-admin/includes/ – [F,L]
RewriteRule !^wp-includes/ – [S=3]
RewriteRule ^wp-includes/[^/]+\.php$ – [F,L]
RewriteRule ^wp-includes/js/tinymce/langs/.+\.php – [F,L]
RewriteRule ^wp-includes/theme-compat/ – [F,L]

RewriteEngine On
# RewriteBase /
RewriteBase /portfolio/
# RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteRule . /portfolio/index.php [L]
]

RESULT:
no access to dashboard, homepage gone too!
https://eva.progresstination.net/portfolio/wp-admin/

so I temporalily deleted the htaccess, logged in my site again, what do I have to do before uploading manually changed htaccess?

MISUNDERSTANDING:
progresstination.net is an other wordpress site of mine. I have no problems there so far.

the problem only affects my page: eva.progresstination.net/portfolio

on this page everyhting was working until I tried to use the plugin

uhhh, I’m so glad you responded… so I try to answer your questions:

First, everything (wordpress) is in the portfolio-folder, and I think its using index.php, see https://www.progresstination.net/exchange/screenshotFTP.png
My current roots htaccess file reads:
[
# BULLETPROOF .47.D >>>>>>> DEFAULT .HTACCESS
# If you edit the line of code above you will see error messages on the BPS Security Status page
# WARNING!!! THE default.htaccess FILE DOES NOT PROTECT YOUR WEBSITE AGAINST HACKERS
# This is a standard generic htaccess file that does NOT provide any website security
# The DEFAULT .HTACCESS file should be used for testing and troubleshooting purposes only
# 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
]
Can/should I make any changes there?

I’ve manually uploaded the htaccess file, after have added a “#” before “Options -Indexes”, as it was adviced in a different thread about this topic. didn’t help though.

As I have re-installed it but not activated anything, no Modes being activated right now I guess.
