    Hi,

    I’m trying to connect “MainWP Google Analytics Extension” plugin to Google Analytics account but getting 403 error. Here is a log:

    The Request URI is simulating an RFI hacking attempt. To fix/whitelist this problem do the steps below.

    1. Go to the BPS Pro > Custom Code page > click the wp-admin htaccess File Custom Code accordion tab/button.
    2. Copy the BPS wp-admin plugin skip/bypass rule code below into this BPS wp-admin Custom Code text box: 3. CUSTOM CODE WPADMIN PLUGIN/FILE SKIP RULES
    3. Click the Save wp-admin Custom Code button.
    4. Go to the BPS Setup Wizard page and rerun the Pre-Installation wizard and Setup wizard.

    # MainWP Google Analytics Extension plugin Query String skip/bypass rule
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} page=Extensions-Mainwp-Google-Analytics-Extension(.*) [NC]
RewriteRule . - [S=3]
