 * I installed WFS about 10 days ago. There are some outdated plugins on my site
   but I never got the security email. I ticked the box ‘Enable automatic scheduled
   scans’. Anybody have an idea for a fix?

   works) it does not name my webadress. it looks like this:

 * > This email was sent from your website “**mywebsite.com**” by the Wordfence 
   > plugin at Wednesday…

 * Any idea as to why Mark, since I do not run a multi-site?

 * Please go to Settings > General and tell me what your “Site Title” is set to.
   Is it blank?

 * My wrong Mark! Sorry! It was blank.
 * Do you have any insight as to why it is not doing the daily automatic scan and
   send me an email about it?

 * Awesome, glad you found it.
 * Try doing a manual scan and verify it can scan at all.

 * Mark.
