 * FeedWordPress calls ?update_feedwordpress=1 which breaks with this

 * Ok thanks for the heads up. I’ll put this plugin on my testing list. Try this
   htaccess fix and see if it works.
 *     ```
       # FeedWordPress - possible fix - pending verification
       RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} update_feedwordpress=(.*) [NC]
       RewriteRule . - [S=30]
       ```
   
 * This has a very slim chance of working because the word “update” is blocked in
   the SQL Injection filter. If you remove “update” from the SQL Injection filter
   then it will most likely solve the problem, but do this at your own risk. Once
   i have a chance to do some testing I will hopefully be able to come up with a
   better solution that does not leave a possible security vulnerability on your
   site. Thanks.

 * Did the htaccess Skip rule work? Or did you have to remove “update” from the 
   SQL Injection Filter? Thanks.

 * I made both changes. Testing them individually, it looks like either will work.

 * Awesome! Now that is a nice surprise. 🙂 Ok the skip rule is the one you want
   to use so you should leave “update” in the SQL Injection Filter, which I’m sure
   you did. “Update” is definitely an SQL word / command that you want to filter.
   Thanks!!!
