Just sharing this to help other people. I was getting a 403 error (https:\/\/www.screencast.com\/t\/urXuCizQbjp) with Stealth Mode Lite checked. I noticed because all my traffic in GA was shown as direct. I looked at some past similar issues in this forum, checked my folder permissions for the uploads\/caos\/ folder (https:\/\/www.screencast.com\/t\/8aIVIKGFK) but they looked okay. <\/p>\n
Then I did a little Googling and saw that the 6G Firewall can cause 403 errors with other plugins. I use Gridpane for this site and have 6G Firewall active. So I tried it with the 6G Firewall off, and the 403 error is gone. <\/p>\n
As I understand it, I’d have to whitelist my server IP in the firewall for this error to disappear, but for now I think I’ll just keep the firewall on and uncheck Stealth Mode Lite (doing it this way there is also no 403 error). Does Stealth Mode really make that big a difference in GA data?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-13352396","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry","topic-tag-403-error"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/13352396","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/13352396\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13352401,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/13352396\/revisions\/13352401"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13352396"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
