MailChimp – plugin firewall whitelist rule

[jena]

I have this kind of error in security log

>>>>>>>>>>> 403 GET or HEAD Request Error Logged - November 4, 2013 - 10:00 am <<<<<<<<<<<

I tried both ways:
1. Added this skip/bypass rule But it still shows the error in security log.

# mailchimp Plugin skip/bypass rule
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/wp-content/plugins/mailchimp-for-wp/ [NC]
RewriteRule . - [S=24]

Also added # CUSTOM CODE TIMTHUMB FORBID RFI and MISC FILE SKIP/BYPASS RULE

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (css\.php|ajaxlinks\.php|updateprayer\.php|timthumb

UPDATE: BPS Pro 13+ and BPS 2.0+ versions have a feature called: Setup Wizard AutoFix (AutoWhitelist|AutoSetup|AutoCleanup) that automatically creates plugin and theme whitelist rules and automatically sets up and cleans up caching plugins htaccess code.

Most likely this plugin script needs to be whitelisted in the Plugin Firewall.

Troubleshooting Help links
For BPS Pro troubleshooting the first thing you should do is use the BPS Pro troubleshooting steps in the link below to determine what in BPS Pro is blocking something else so that you will know what needs to be done to correct the issue.  If the Plugin Firewall is blocking something then you would create a Plugin Firewall whitelist rule, if the root .htaccess file is blocking something then you would create a plugin skip/bypass rule.

Add this MailChimp plugin script to your Plugin Firewall Whitelist Text area, click the Save Whitelist Options button and activate the Plugin Firewall again.
