    I'm having trouble with just one page on my site, when I make any edits and try to save it says "working" and then never saves. Anyone got any ideas as to why? Just started yesterday after 5 years of being fine.

      #edit, misread it happened at only one page. [ed. note: fourroses666 last edited this post 13 years, 8 months ago.]

        Whats the content your trying to save ?

        Only reason I ask is there was someone else that was having that issue recently and as I remember it it was down to the content and something on the server.

          Thanks, just trying to save two words of text!

            May be the page has a particular template?

              sounds like a problem with mod_security?
              Are the words something like money or casino..?

                Thanks yes, it does seem to be limited to two pages that share the same template. Any thoughts on what might cause this?

                  It's almost certainly mod_security. http://wiki.modxcms.com/index.php/What_is_mod_security_and_how_does_it_affect_me

                  Hosts have all kinds of weird ideas about how to use mod_security and I do know of an actual case where mod_security refused to save any page with the word 'casino' on it.

                  If changing the two words on the page to something harmless ('Welcome to My Site') solves it, you know what's triggering it. If not, the problem is probably somewhere in the template.

                    If you have access to apache error log you can check if there is something wrong.

                    Otherwise you should check snippets and plugins inside your template.
