 * I have a vanilla WordPress setup to test this. when I try to save any of the 
   settings under opportunity details and email, my install is throwing a 403 error:
 * Forbidden
    You don’t have permission to access /wp-admin/options.php on this 
   server.
 * I have disabled the few plugins I have installed and got the same results. is
   it possible the error is being caused because of my permalink structure? I prefer
   to configure them using .htaccess and this – [https://site.com//%postname%/](https://site.com//%postname%/)
 * has anybody else experienced something similar?

   and I’m sorry you’re running into issues. This is not a problem we’ve come across
   before in regards to the volunteer management plugin. I know 403 errors are typically
   difficult to troubleshoot, so it may be worth following the guidelines at [https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-fix-the-403-forbidden-error-in-wordpress/](https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-fix-the-403-forbidden-error-in-wordpress/)
   as a starting point. Give that a shot and let us know how it goes. Good luck.

 * Since we haven’t heard from you in a little while I’m going to mark this as resolved.
   Of course, don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any other questions.
