[resolved] 403 Forbidden [when adding plugin] (7 posts)

    I installed WordPress Gallery Leaf Plugin, and I am now locked out of my website. The message on the screen reads:

    You don't have permission to access /tri-ang-furniture/tri-ang-early-furniture/ on this server.

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

    Can anyone help me, I thought that plugins from the WordPress site would be safe to use.

    FTP into your site (or use whatever file management application your host provides) and delete the wp-content/pliugins/gallery-leaf folder.

    Thanks for your answer, but I can't log onto my side to change anything.

    You don't need to login to your WP site to use FTP. Please see the link I gave above.

    Try confirming your FTP login credentials with your host.
