    Hi. As you can see on https://elbarcoebrio.com/tienda/, the filters by category, rating, etc. works as expected. But the searching by author do not work at all (instead, you get a 403 forbidden access error). I have no idea of what is happening here (In my localhost I have the latest woocommerce version, and the problem persists; I deactivated all the other plugins, except, of course, woocommerce, and the problem persists; I used latest storefront theme instead of my child-theme, and the problem persists). Could you please help me? Thanks in advance.

    Sorry, but I have (in my localhost) the latest version of the plugin, and the problem persists. (Just in case, I uploaded the plugin in my site; but no good news ;(

    SOLVED! The problem was in the .htaccess file. With this part (which pretends to discourage brute force attacks by blocking author scans):

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (author=\d+) [NC]
    RewriteRule .* – [F]

    Glad not have to change this great plugin!

    Thanks. Please, note that my solution was, precisely, to delete that part on the .htaccess file.
