    Hi, I do testing on my local WordPress server and move the edits to the production server. As a result, the Fancybox CSS&JS URLs (in NGG Other Options / Lightbox effects) are pointing to the local server on the production server, which causes slowdowns when browser is trying to find them.

    When I correct them and hit save, I get a page saying “403 Forbidden – You don’t have permission to access /wp-admin/admin.php on this server.”. So the values won’t change.

    So far I’ve tried:
    – setting admin.php permissions to 777 temporarily
    – adding SecFilterEngine off -stuff (found on WP forums) to my root .htaccess file
    – disabling other plugins
    – disabling and activating NGG

    Any ideas I could try?

    Edit: NGG is version 2.0.66.33
