Still doing it. and 'select' seems to be the culprit in the reply...but not always, and not in all areas of the forum...strangely.
Yes! I have just written a reply "just select your DOB on the screen" and 403 Forbidden. Took me ages to figure it out, but it is that word. Removing it completely or changing the spelling lets you submit your post then.Is there any mod feedback on this ? The thread is long now and this is quite site-breaking so should be a high priority fix? Where is the Matt Dell guy?
Wrote a long reply on the ‘what have you done to your BMW today’ thread with info that some members might have found useful when servicing their brakes on Fxx models.
Kept getting the 403 message when previewing or posting - no swear words (intended or accidental), no weird links, tried with and without pictures and changing words that a bot might find even remotely offensive.
No idea what the issue is, too much of a ball ache for me to attempt any more edits for an ongoing problem that PH techs can’t sort out.

It happens if you have SQL phrases on the same line in your text. But yeah, PH techs don't seem to care or can't fix it. Been going on for too long.

Look for words used in SQL (database language). It appears that the site is trying to block what is sees as SQL code imbeded in your text.Kept getting the 403 message when previewing or posting - no swear words (intended or accidental), no weird links, tried with and without pictures and changing words that a bot might find even remotely offensive.

SQL is used to filter and manipulate data so words like...
SELECT
INSERT
UPDATE
DELETE
TRUNCATE
ADD
CREATE
AND
FROM
WHERE
Also brackets can be a problem
It will be 2 or more on the same line.

As said, if you still have a copy of it, paste half of it in and 'test' that. Then if the works, paste the other half in. If a section doesnt work, paste half of that section.
Tedious on a phone, easier on a computer, but you can very quickly split down to the cause and redraft just that paragraph. However I agree its s

te!Appreciate the info on how to resolve. Perhaps a mod could at least quote the workaround in an early/first post for you don't have to trawl the thread. Rewriting the answer is fine for a couple of sentences. I wanted to bore people at length, so the 1500 words I'd written had to be dissected into small sections and posted in, previewed to establish acceptability and this process repeated.
My offending sentences were:
It was the moving parts that provided the compatibility headache:
The headset needed a 1 1/8th and 1.5 top and bottom race, specced according to the frame's insert space.
Cue a set of calipers and my best reading glasses.
Obviously spacing them out resolves, but only after I'd been through 1500 word's worth of sentences and also, I don't want to punctuate and paragraph like a simpleton.

Thanks JeremyC for pointing me to this thread as I've just run in to this for the first time.
If you replace the asterisks below with "programme from favourites" it will fall over with a 403. Odd.
Select the ****** in the app & away it goes.
Find an alternative for 'Select' and I'd expect it to be fine ...If you replace the asterisks below with "programme from favourites" it will fall over with a 403. Odd.
Select the ****** in the app & away it goes.
How about "choose the programme from favourites ..."?

SELECT and...If you replace the asterisks below with "programme from favourites" it will fall over with a 403. Odd.
Select the ****** in the app & away it goes.
...FROM are key words used in SQL queries.
I had to split that sentence over 2 lines to get it through without the 403 error
