      I have tried 3 times to make a post here, but each time I have been blocked by Wordfence, which gives a 403 FORBIDDEN error.
      What is allowed in posts here? I had included an Hiawatha configuration file and some file permission data from ls -l

        FWIW, happens to me also.

        AFAIK, we don’t have a full list of “whatall triggers/rules” the WordFence (bbpress anti-spam plugin) contains.

        As a workaround, I’m suggesting to post “code” or “hundred-lines-long copies of logfile output” to pastebin.com
        then include the pastebin link within your post.

          I have found one thing that caused me to be blocked. I had included a commandline input to show how I got some code. So I have now posted, minus the offending commandline and the conf file.
