PHP Travel 403 Fix
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
My travel-booking platform is built in PHP and everything loads perfectly until the moment a registered user tries to confirm a reservation. As soon as they hit the “Sign in to complete your booking” step the site throws a 403 error, blocking the checkout flow entirely.
Data is still being pulled from the APIs and displayed correctly, so the fault seems isolated to whatever happens inside that final confirmation call—possibly a permissions rule, .htaccess directive, token check or something similar. I haven’t knowingly changed code or plugins right before the issue appeared, so I need someone who can methodically trace the root cause, correct it, and make sure the booking journey works end-to-end for registered users without disturbing the rest of the site.
What I expect from you:
• Identify the exact trigger for the 403 during booking confirmation
• Apply the necessary code, permission, or server-config fix
• Prove the solution by completing a live booking in a staging or low-fare test mode
• Provide a brief report of what was wrong and how you resolved it for future reference
The job is finished when a registered user can sign in, confirm a booking, and land on the success page with no 403 in sight.
