Themes and Styles

Troubleshooting

403 Forbidden when playing audio/video

Server may block MIME types. Check:

1. Apache — .htaccess or config:

AddType audio/mpeg .mp3
AddType video/mp4 .mp4

1. ModSecurity — disable or adjust rules for media files.

2. Nginx — ensure types includes required MIME types.

Clear cache after update

php artisan config:clear
php artisan view:clear
