 * Hi
 * After years of working well the “Hide Backend” function does not send me to the
   login page when entering the appropriate “Login Slug”. I am just taken to a page
   that says
 * > Not Acceptable!
   >  An appropriate representation of the requested resource could
   > not be found on this server. This error was generated by Mod_Security.
 * I have checked the settings for “hide backend” and they have not changed – any
   ideas!?!?
    I have WordPress 5.5.3 and iTheme Security 7.9.0

 * Mod_Security is an Apache (web server) module. So IMHO this is probably a server-
   side (Apache) issue. Probably best to contact your hosting provider.
 * To prevent any confusion, I’m not iThemes.

 * [@nlpro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nlpro/) thanks for message, think
   it may be my ip being blocked as the login page works as expected via other sources/
   networks. Will check with my host to see if they can shine any light. As far 
   as I can tell mod_security is not featured on my cPanel but it may be hidden 
   away somewhere!
