   SO i just set up my blog with GoDaddy domain and hosting using Genesis framework and a child theme. I had some issues between wordpress.com and wordpress.org, where I kept getting routed to the .com domain but i thought i resolved them.

   i got the site up, installed the theme, and was setting up the basic page structure when everything stopped working, now i can't even access the site. I get this error:

   -
   Forbidden

   You don't have permission to access / on this server.

   Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

   Apache Server at http://www.joshuaroda.com Port 80

   What did i do?!?

   With FTP, try to go to your "www" folder and find the ".htaccess" file.
   If you can see this file, download it, edit it and replace all lines by :

   # BEGIN WordPress
   
   <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /
   RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
   RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
   </IfModule>
   
   # END WordPress

   Then upload it, and retry access to your site.

   Regards
