    Hello. I recently had to recreate my htaccess file after running Wordfence for a few years–and all the customization from the plugin is gone. How do I get the plugin to write to the new htaccess file? Do I have to uninstall and delete Wordfence, then reinstall it? – Thank you!

    Hello @nicola1013 and thanks for reaching out to us!

    Typically the only thing added to the htaccess file is:

    # Wordfence WAF
<IfModule mod_php7.c>
	php_value auto_prepend_file '/wordfence-waf.php'
</IfModule>
<Files ".user.ini">
<IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
	Require all denied
</IfModule>
<IfModule !mod_authz_core.c>
	Order deny,allow
	Deny from all
</IfModule>
</Files>
# END Wordfence WAF

    Depending on your setup, there might be some tweaks, such as if you are hosted on a Litespeed server. Make sure the auto_prepend_file is pointed to your wordfence-waf.php location.

    Hope this helps!

    Thanks!
