Saving failed: AJAX call failed: error – Forbidden.

Hi,

thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.

From what I can see (especially from the “Forbidden” part) in the error message, this is caused by something in the server configuration. Something in the save request (or your table data) causes the server to disallow and block the HTTP request, presumably because some security extension on the server (wrongly) things that an attack is going on. Then, when the request is blocked, it never reaches TablePress, and thus the table can’t be saved.

To fix this, please try to find out from the webhost company, if there’s a security extension installed on the server that could cause this. They should be able to find out more in their server error log files.

Regards,
Tobias

Hi,

This indicates that a security extension or the firewall on the server is blocking the request. This could for example be the mod_security extension for the Apache webserver. It contains rules that erroneously get triggered by such an empty cell (which internally is represented as ,""]]) and then blocks the request.
Unfortunately, there’s nothing that I can do about this in TablePress, it needs to be fixed on the server level.
