Can't save edited templates in version 3.8.3 - error 403 forbidden message

[Paul M]

Again, nothing is missing, you would get a 404 error if it were.

The server (or firewall if you are routed via one) is intercepting the request and blocking it.

Speak to your host.

So it's looking for /template.php?do=updatetemplate

And that is correct.

You really need to talk to your host because I would guess suhosin or mod_security is causing the issue.

Thank you. That's what I needed to know. They have told me that there was some new security installed and we are sorting in out together. Thanks for your help.

I had exactly same problem. The hosting company installed mod_security without informing me.

I put these codes at the top of the site's root htaccess file.

<IfModule mod_security.c>
  SecFilterEngine Off
  SecFilterScanPOST Off
</IfModule>
