Sorry, we can’t change the file access privileges set by your server. You’ll have to edit the file via FTP. ### I edited my htaccess file and now my site does not work? You probably have a syntax error in the file or on the server you are not allowed any of the settings in your htaccess file. Try to restore the original backup file.

Also the ads of the original were removed. Not sure if this is a legit – but the plugin works fine and has no ads.
