 * Final update:
 * I managed to track down the cause for the problems myself. For some unknown reason,
   the file permissions of the admin-ajax.php file (and only that specific file)
   in the wp-admin directory had turned completely ‘blank’: 000. Once I restored
   them to 644, the problem was solved.
 * Thanks for your efforts in assisting.
 * Ed

 * Thanks for the offer.
 * An update: I’ve contacted the hosting provider in the meantime, to see if they
   can find out what’s causing the error. If they can’t help me, I might accept 
   your offer.
 * Thanks again,
    Ed

 * I installed Tweak Option, and changed wppa_ajax_non_admin to yes.
    I can’t seem
   to delete wppa_cached_options and wppa_cached_options_admin somehow though. (
   They don’t disappear from the list – which I expected them to do?)
 * After this, it’s still not possible to change the name of an album.
 * There is no .htaccess file that forbids acces of admin-ajax.php.
 * Thanks for your efforts again.

 * Thanks again for your reply.
 * 1. No, this results in the following error: “The server returned unexpected output:
   Access denied”
 * 2. Not that I’m aware of. I haven’t installed any new plugins anyway, the ones
   that are installed haven’t caused any problems in the past.
 * 3. I see the following error there: [HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden 156ms]

 * Just tried it on a different PC, different browser, first time I logged in from
   that one: same result, unfortunately…
