    A sample of my log looks like this:

    >>>>>>>>>>> 403 GET or Other Request Error Logged - May 28, 2013 - 9:56 pm <<<<<<<<<<<

    I am using the Every Calendar +1 plugin, and it tries to use google maps to populate maps on the fly when the details of an event are selected.  Since the latest updates maps are blocked and the call shows up in the log as shown above.  What needs to be done to allow the mxn.js script to call the Google geocoder?

    Thanks.

    Do you have BPS free or BPS Pro?

    BS Free at the moment, with plans to upgrade to the Pro version.

    Here’s another related line from the logs:

    REQUEST_URI: /blog/wp-content/plugins/every-calendar-1/mxn/mxn.js?(googlev3:geocoder)

    Just wanted to make sure that the issue/problem was not related to the BPS Pro Plugin Firewall.

    What is causing the block/403 error is the round bracket coding characters/parenthesis (googlev3:geocoder) in the Request URI string.

    Edit your root .htaccess file using the BPS .htaccess file editor on the Edit/Upload/Download tab page and remove/delete the round brackets from this security filter below in your root .htaccess file.

    RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^.*(\(|\)|<|>|%3c|%3e).* [NC,OR]

    round bracket code characters removed

    RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^.*(<|>|%3c|%3e).* [NC,OR]

    I will be splitting your post into a new Forum Topic to make it easier for other folks to find this fix for the Every Calendar +1 plugin.
