   This resolved previous forum post may help me with my current problem that's sort of similar. But, since it's been resolved no one is answering my question at the bottom. Can someone clearly explain to me how I'm supposed to add this file?

   I'm trying to make changes to my widgets on my site. Everytime I go to the widgets area and make a change, when I click "Save Changes" it takes me back to my home page and the changes aren't saved.

   Found fix. Added .htaccess file to wp-admin with the following contents:

   <IfModule mod_security.c>
   SecFilterInheritance Off
   </IfModule>

   what is your problem, specifically? What is the url to your blog?

   My blog is here

   I can't make any changes to my blog. I can't add posts, edit my theme, etc. Whenever I click a button to save or make a change I get redirected to the home page of my blog.

   Someone suggested I deactivate all my widgets and I did. But, it still doesn't work!

   Thanks for offering to help!

   assuming this is your site, missbakersbiologyclass.com ..

   Regarding creating an .htaccess:

   set up your ftp client to view hidden files.

   on your local computer, create a blank text file. name it htaccess

   you can then upload that file to wherever you intend on having it.

   once its been successfully uploaded to the server, you will need to rename it to .htaccess (the . (dot) is intentional)

   Thank you! But, this didn't end up working after all. I'm at a total loss. Do you have any other suggestions as to what might be causing this to happen?
