[Plugin: Yoast Google Analytics] Save settings / Page not found

    Hello!

    Running version 5.4.6 of GA by Yoast which is the latest today, 2.13.2016.

    When inputting the authentication code from Google Analytics (which GA by Yoast fetches beautifully by opening a pop-up of Google Analytics auth fetch) and pressing the button that says “Save authentication code”, I get the 404 page for my blog. I found an old forum entry with instructions to check that /wp-admin/admin-post.php exists, which in my case, it does, as do all the other WP core admin files.

    EDIT: Also, when changing ANY setting from GA by Yoast and pressing “Save changes”, I get the same 404 error.

    Thanks in advance for all help.

    Ok, did research, I had to call up my host provider – they whitelisted a rule GA by Yoast uses. That solved it and it was a known issue to them – this is indeed THE solution to this problem.

    This was my case too. My hosting provider solved it.
