How to fix: 403 Forbidden Error

For security reasons, our servers will not allow browser access to a directory which does not contain an index file (ie. index.php, index.html, etc…)

This stops potential hackers from viewing directory contents and running exploits on the server.

If you receive this error when linking to a folder, please create an index file or link to a specific file instead.

ie)

Instead of: http://domainname.com.au/folder

Use: http://domainname.com.au/folder/file.php
