 * When I try to login to my rocknetwebzine.com wordpress page I get a 403 error
   saying I am forbidden to log into my page. What the heck is going on? When can’t
   I access my page? This is crazy. I am paying for a website that I am forbidden
   to access.

 * 403 forbidden means that your browser isn’t able to load the scripts up because
   your server isn’t allowing it. This is a hard one to solve. Because anything 
   could be blocking the server. Hence 403 forbidden error is very vague, the error
   log may give you clue.
 * Most likely this is a server permissions/ownership issue. If its a permission
   issue, it may tell you which file has incorrect permissions, so ask your host
   what’s going on. If you are using cPanel, the following tutorial has more information
   about the error log in cPane: [How to view cPanel Error logs](https://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/website/cpanel/how-to-view-cpanel-error-logs)
 * If the problem is file permissions, you can follow the steps in the below article
   to learn how to modify your file permissions: [How to change file permissions within cPanel](https://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/website/how-to/change-file-permissions)
   [https://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions](https://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions)
 * Another possible cause could be a corrupt [.htaccess](https://wordpress.org/support/article/htaccess/)
   file. Also check your .htaccess files for anything strange.
 * Make sure your server settings are not overriding the .htaccess file.
 * Another possible cause could be changes to the server settings (accidental or
   otherwise). Check with your hosting provider.

 * You don’t pay anything here. WordPress.org provides the software for other people
   to use their own sites on their own hosts.
 * You may consider contacting whosoever you are paying to.

 * Do you get a 403 page when you try to login into cPanel? If Yes, then you are
   blocked by the server and you’ll need to contact your Hoster to get unblocked.
 * If you can log into cPanel but not sure where to find error logs, which can probably
   tell you what the problem is, or not sure what the error logs are telling you,
   then contact your Hoster and provide them information about your problem.
