 I'm looking for the current solution to the #403 error. The current htaccess maker has no option to diasble anti-leech anymore.
Still I am getting the #403 error when I try to post a link of my website on my facebook account.

How can I fix this. Please help me.

With regards,
John

What is the link you are posting in Facebook? That may help to know what is causing the 403.

Something is not right, I get a 403 error just typing in https://eurasia-art.nl or https://eurasia-art.nl/index.php.

I am in the USA, do you have a GeoIP block in place? That would explain both problems I think.

Hi Dale,

thank you for taking your time to help me. I did had a GeoBlock on my site wich I just turned off. you should be able to reach my site now. Although this did not fix my problem with posting links on facebook.

With regards,
John

John,

Good news! That link you posted works for me, so the link is fine. We had a similar problem with Facebook on another ticket last week. This was the solution:
Every time you make a change, please remember to force Facebook to purge its cache, otherwise you will keep seeing the old (blocked) page. You can do that here https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/
