Getting kicked out when I try to edit a page

Support
#1

Hey Folks,
New site. Just Akismet is active - WordFence is turned off. I was getting ready to edit the barebones Pro theme and when I go to edit the sample page with Cornerstone - which I renamed to be 2025 home, I get booted out to the login page. Created a new page and tried to edit that - booted out. What’s up?

Hey Gregg,

Thanks for writing in! I have checked your site and it seems that the WordFence WAF could be causing the issue.

  • See the secure note below

I would recommend that you temporarily disable WAF in your .htaccess OR simply allow Cornerstone by adding this to your htaccess:

# Allow Cornerstone access
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} page=cornerstone-launch-editor
RewriteRule ^ - [E=NO_WF_WAF:1]
</IfModule>

Kindly let us know how it goes.

Hello @ruenel,
Thank you. WAF was disabled but its code remained in the htaccess file. I added the bit of code you sent and accessed the site via incognito and it allowed me to initiate Cornerstone fine. I think I can take it from here. Thanks again!
