403 forbidden issue solved: it is because of the .htaccess corrupted file. How?

1. Downloaded the .htaccess from Cpanel (public_html) to have a backup of it. and then, delete the file.

2. Generate a fresh .htaccess file, by login to the WordPress dashboard, and click on Settings › Permalinks.

3)Without making any changed, click on the save changes button at the bottom of the page.

and it will generate a fresh .htaccess file for you

And refresh the site, the issue will be fixed.
