To prove that I know very little I had a small issue with the file I uploaded 22.02.2026. (Read on)
I have a product 'Citadel Contrast Paint : Ultramarines Blue' when navigating away from it or adding to my cart it generated a 403 error dropping me from my site and requiring a reload I could see it in the cart but doing anything else much again dropped me from my site requiring a reload from the index page which i could also no longer see.
Editing the product in admin also dropped me.

Editing the .htaccess the file to remove the match 'ultram' in there fixed it.
Anyway just sayin your should read and keep in mind your product's name as it might match one of the conditions.
