 * Hello.
 * I see many requested pages/posts that do NOT exist and return a normal 404 header(
   checked with the browser), that are NOT recognized as 404 in the Live Traffic
   view.
 * I would appreciate some help on this, since that makes the **404 rate limit unsusable**.
 * There is nothing wrong with my WP (latest), my PHP (8.2.x), my DB, my hosting,
   all are 100% ok. Nothing to search in those. So please do not reply to check 
   those, since after that usually the topic is abandoned and lost in the pleathora
   of others.
 * Thanks

 * Hi @ dimalifragis,
 * Thank you for reaching out.
 * Could you please navigate to **Wordfence>Tools>Live Traffic**, expand the results
   and send me a screenshot of any entries that match the description above so I
   can take a look?
 * Please add your forum username to the subject and respond here once done.
 * Thanks,
 * Mark

 * Hi [@dimalifragis](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dimalifragis/),
 * We did not receive the screenshot requested. Are you experiencing any problems
   while forwarding it?
 * Let us know if you are still experiencing the same 404 errors.
 * Thanks,
   Mark.
