    Argh, it’s a background image, not a list type, so I wasn’t overwriting!

    I still have some margin issues to resolve, but that got the bullets. Thank you so much!

    I should have posted on here hours ago, saved myself a lot of work. Thank you!

    Sure, it’s https://www.successfulhosting.com/. Been with them for 8 years and been very happy most of that time. (Had some big problem about 3-4 years ago, but don’t remember what it was about, and it’s been resolved.)

    I get a little frustrated with support sometimes because they skim my ticket instead of reading it and tell me some computer 101 thing to do. But I reply back to clarify, and then they’re helpful (well, they’re always helpful, just not always relevant). But yesterday they got it in one, and replied within 20 minutes.

    Fixed!

    Here’s the reply from hosting:
    “The issue seems to be with the mod_security turned on for the domain. I have as of now disabled it. Please verify it from your end. 🙂

    For your information, mod_rewrite is enable in Apache and as also AllowOveride so that changes made in .htaccess can be taken up by the webserver.”

    So far I’ve been able to change the 2 settings that I know gave me the 403 error. As this is going to be a pretty small network of sites, and meant solely for development of client sites that will then move to their own domains, I think shared hosting will be fine.

    As I’m not a network admin and have no desire to be, I couldn’t begin to narrow down the issue to even know what to ask. I appreciate the assistance!

    Okay, I’ve submitted a helpdesk ticket to hosting support regarding the mod rewrite. Will post here when/if (hopefully when!) the issue is resolved. Thanks for all the help!

    No, I’m with a hosting company, and it’s shared hosting. So do I need to contact them with this issue? One post I came across implied that, but it wasn’t directly related to my problem, and I wasn’t sure what to ask my hosting company.

    Why would this be different in multisite vs a regular wordpress installation? I have numerous standalone wp installs with my hosting company with no problems. Do multisites need different permissions?

    I’m using subfolders. Here’s what’s in the htaccess:

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]

    # uploaded files
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-] /)?files/(. ) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L]

    # add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-] /)?wp-admin$ $1wp-admin/ [R=301,L]

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
    RewriteRule ^ – [L]
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-] /)?(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $2 [L]
    RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-zA-Z-] /)?(.*\.php)$ $2 [L]
    RewriteRule . index.php [L]

    Thanks!
