Wordpress LScache Plugin: htaccess update problem
Last Updated on: Wed, 15 Apr 2026 00:00:02 Hi i use ThirstyAffiliates link cloak plugin and i changed url link structure from /git/ to /link/ I checked this at Edit .htaccess section. it also shows old record and not updating. #BEGIN Block-Bots-ThirstyAffiliates RewriteEngine On RewriteCond % HTTP_USER_AGENT (googlebot|bingbot|Slurp|DuckDuckBot|Baiduspider|YandexBot|Sogou|Exabot|facebo|ia_archiver) [NC] RewriteRule ^git/ ? [L,F] #END Block-Bots-ThirstyAffiliates How can i solve this problem? I deactivated litespeed cache and that plugin also and purged all Thanks Hi @uraniumhazee, May I know are you using Pro or Free version of ThirstyAffiliates and can you pass me your ThirstyAffiliates Settings for reproducing? You can join our Slack channel or submit a ticket here for passing us the details. Thanks, Stanley https://imgur.com/a/N6ZHRVb i use free version of ThirstyAffiliates. When i change Link Prefix, the htaccess file is not updated. This plugin blocks google to index cloaked links. At the first time when i installed ThirstyAffiliates, i set a Link Prefix and Litespeed Cache perceived link prefix and created right htaccess. Like: #BEGIN Block-Bots-ThirstyAffiliates RewriteEngine On RewriteCond % HTTP_USER_AGENT (googlebot|bingbot|Slurp|DuckDuckBot|Baiduspider|YandexBot|Sogou|Exabot|facebo|ia_archiver) [NC] RewriteRule ^git/ ? [L,F] #END Block-Bots-ThirstyAffiliates After that when i chage link prefix the file is not updated. After a while i changed the link prefix from /git/ to /link/ and i changed RewriteRule ^git/ ? [L,F] manuelly to RewriteRule ^link/ ? [L,F] What is the problem what do you think? Thanks i solved the problem. With new ThirstyAffiliates there is an option By enabling this setting, your affiliate links wont redirect for all the blocked bots set above and will send out a 403 forbidden error. if you check this , htaccess file updates: Thanks Glad to hear that!
