Subscribe To Comments Reloaded – 403 error

[Olive13013]

Hi, I installed the Subscribe to Comments Reloaded extension but I have a 403 error when users have to confirm their email address to subscribe to the notification of the comments of an article.
It comes from the HTACCESS because when I delete it it works but I prefer to find a solution because your extension my was very useful. Here is the message I see in the security log:

is it possible to allow the connection to the address of the page: /gestion-des-abonnements-aux-commentaires/

Thanks à lot for your support and the nice plugin !

What is causing the 403 error is the Query String is simulating an RFI attack.  To allow/fix this problem do the steps below.

1. Copy the modified BPS Query String Exploits below to this BPS Root Custom Code text box: CUSTOM CODE BPSQSE BPS QUERY STRING EXPLOITS
2. Click the Save Root Custom Code button.
3. Go to the BPS Security Modes page and click the Root Folder BulletProof Mode Activate button.
