After restoring my website, thanks to your instructions, I now have the following notice by BPS:
> BPS Alert! Your site does not appear to be protected by BulletProof Security
Go to the Security Modes page and click the Create secure.htaccess File AutoMagic button and Activate Root Folder BulletProof Mode.If your site is in Default Mode then it is NOT protected by BulletProof Security. Check the BPS Security Status page to view your BPS Security Status information.
- BPS Alert! An htaccess file was NOT found in your WordPress wp-admin folder
If you have deleted the wp-admin htaccess file for troubleshooting purposes you can disregard this Alert.
After you are done troubleshooting Click Here to go to the BPS Setup Wizard page and click the Setup Wizard button to setup the BPS plugin again.
Important Note: If you deleted the wp-admin htaccess file due to bad/invalid Custom Code causing a problem then Click Here to go to the BPS Custom Code page, delete the bad/invalid wp-admin Custom Code and click the Save wp-admin Custom Code button before running the Setup Wizard again.
In order to not replicate my original problem after having updated to version .53.3 What would be the best order to proceed in re-establishing my protection. TIA
