Easy Social Share Buttons – Cannot read my buttons counter 403 error

[impart]

Hi,

since installing of BPS Pro I cannot read my internal buttons counters anymore, they are not displayed and I get this error message constantly. Twitter, Google, Love & Tumblr are exactly the counters I can’t see anymore now, so it has to do with this. The IP is myself, it’s the IP of a VPN. Please advise shortly. THanks!

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.

The Request URI and Query String simulate an RFI hacking attempt against your website, which is triggering the Secondary RFI security filters.  The Primary RFI security filter is allowing this simulated RFI hacking attempt since the Referer is your domain.  Solution is to comment out the Secondary RFI security filters.

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.
