Ban hosts feature changing .htaccess permissions

    I posted earlier that something in the plugin was changing file permissions in my .htaccess file.

    Finally worked it out. It’s the ban host function. When it’s activated and filled with banned IPs it changes my .htaccess file permissions from 644 to 444 which messes with my Yoast SEO plugin.

    I would really appreciate some help on this. Are there any moderators working on this ‘help’ forum who might offer some advice.
