Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Htaccess File Editor – Safely Edit Htaccess File
Nothing is lost or deleted. You can easily get your site back. You're probably getting an error 500 or a white screen (of death). First connect to your site via FTP and locate the .htaccess file. Delete it, or rename it. Try the site again - it should open. If it did locate the backup of the old, working .htaccess file in /wp-content/htaccess-editor-backups/ copy the file to your site's root folder and you're back in business. I get an error saying the .htaccess file can't be edited or created Sorry, we can't change the file access privileges set by your server. You'll have to edit the file via FTP.
