 * edit – scratch this, seems to be wordpress permalinks related. Somehow started
   to happen now for me.
 * Hi Janneke,
 * I just installed this plugin and it seems to work well, except it seems to cause
   modifications to my .htaccess file which clashes with the modifications I already
   have there, causing 500 internal server errors.
 * When I remove the new htaccess additions everything works like a charm, but next
   time I login into my admin dashboard, the changes are back and the site breaks
   again.
 * would it be possible to disable the .htaccess modifications somehow (via an option
   perhaps)?
 * cheers,
    mival

 * Hi!
 * This plugin doesn’t modify .htaccess at all, but it seems you already solved 
   your problem.
