For those out there who are using Nexcess, I've found that mod_security is set to error when updating Formidable Pro's settings. Logs show this:

[Thu Jun 16 12:02:02 2016] [error] [client 68.115.160.74] ModSecurity: Access denied with code 403 (phase 2). Operator GT matched 30 at TX:xss_score. [file "/etc/httpd/modsecurity.d/modsecurity_crs_49_inbound_blocking.conf"] [line "54"] [id "4049003"] [msg "XSS Detected (score 40): IE XSS Filters - Attack Detected."] [hostname "ctdconne.nextmp.net"] [uri "/wp-admin/admin.php"] [unique_id "V2LNeWjP8XIAACcWpygAAAAR"]

The solution is to put a ticket into their Help Desk and it will work fine afterward.
Thanks for the great work on this software. I really appreciate it.

Thanks for posting publicly so others can benefit from your efforts!
