It’s probably a conflict with another plugin. Please check our FAQ and follow our troubleshooting guidelines in order to locate the source of the problem.

Thanks Marco but tried that….no go.
Will just have to leave it and find an alternative plugin and start a fresh and uninstall this tinymce one.
We have not added any new plugins or widgets since we started using this one almost 2 years ago.
It will be easier than risking stuffing up the site if I get it wrong.
Of course you are free to switch to an alternative plugin, but I am pretty sure that your problem is not directly depending on our plugin.
By the way, are you using the latest versions of WordPress and the plugin? You said that you started using it almost 2 years ago, but in the last 2 years many many things have changed in WordPress and consequently in the plugin.

Yes we keep everything up to date, we make sure of this. One thing Wordfence does great for us is locking our would be hackers trying to log in, as for some reason we get hundreds a week, it is not like we sell anything on line.
The other thing we seem have problems with is that it never seems to finish a scan. For example, it is currently 1:55pm 19 October and logging into WordPress and checking the scan progress we see the likes of the below all the time. We have tried adjusting settings as per documentation etc but nothing we seem to do fixes it.

Since you’re experiencing problems even with other plugins, I fear that it may depends on some server configuration or limitation.
