Authorization Test Has Failed

hi! I'm on WordPress 6.7.1 with WPEngine as my host. They don't allow use .htaccess anymore and I haven't been able to resolve the "Authorization Test Failed" error.

The WPEngine team made the following effort:

Since .htaccess is no longer read on our platform, we've gone ahead and applied an Nginx variation to what you were looking to apply:

if ($http_authorization ~ "^(.*)"){ set $rule_0 1; } if ($rule_0 = "1"){ set $http_authorization %1; }

But that hasn't changed the result. Any suggestions?

Note that I haven't changed to an indiweb-friendly theme yet (I'm on Divi) because this is my main and very long-running website and switching themes would be a monumental process, so first I'm trying to see how this shakes out on my existing theme.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions on next steps.
