RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} ^(.)

RewriteBase /~hummrahc/
RewriteRule ^index.php$ - [L]

• Plugin A name and version - jwt-authentication-for-wp-rest-api/

Please provide detailed steps for reproducing the issue.

1. Step 1 - Update my .htaccess to include: RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} ^(.) RewriteRule ^(.) - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%1] and SetEnvIf Authorization "(.*)" HTTP_AUTHORIZATION=$1
2. Step 2 - Update my wp-config to include: define('JWT_AUTH_SECRET_KEY', 'your-top-secret-key'); and define('JWT_AUTH_CORS_ENABLE', true);

Fixed the issue.

You must define your secret key above this PHP line:

/** Sets up WordPress vars and included files. */
require_once(ABSPATH . 'wp-settings.php');
