Description of my issue:

hello !

so i'm trying to figure out what option I should disable to get the htaccess maker work for my website.
so I'm removing options to see what's happening and I'm always getting a 500 error message.
so I checked my error logs and found this :

.htaccess: Option All not allowed here

do you have any idea of what it could be ?
thank you for your response :)

It means that there is a .htaccess file somewhere on your site which contains the line Options All. Apparently this is caused by an option in the .htaccess Maker. OK, it would take you forever to find out which one: it's the "No directory listings" option. Set it to Off. You may also have to set the "Follow symlinks" option to off as well. Both options are in .htaccess Maker. after changing them use the Save and Create .htaccess button to apply the changes.

Thanks again for your prompt response and explanations. It's saving me a lot of time, I appreciate a lot :D
It's now working like a charm !
I just had to add a few exceptions following your instructions on how to debug with the chrome console.
I'm very satisfied.
Thank you :)
