 * If I enable caching, when the page is refreshed the setting hasn’t saved.
 * Other cache settings save okay, just not the Basic/Falcon setting. All the general
   options save without a problem
 * Debugging shows no pages are being cached.
 * WF: 5.3.12
    WP: 4.2.2 PHP: 5.5.12 MySQL: 5.6.21

 * Can you run the [javaScript Console](http://docs.wordfence.com/en/You_guys_wanted_me_to_open_the_JavaScript_console_-_How_do_I_do_that%3F)
   on the Performance setup page and see if you see any errors in red? You may have
   to wait for several minutes. Try saving the settings while it is open.

 * I’m getting a javascript error “WFAD is not defined” in admin.php:1:0
 * There seems to be a more general problem… If I try to manually start a scan, 
   nothing happens by way of a scan starting and I get the following error:
 * ReferenceError: wordfenceAdmin is not defined
 * Latest versions of WF and WP

 * OK… fixed it… My plugin had uploaded with a folder name that wasn’t ‘wordfence’.
   While much of the interface was working after activating the plugin, critical
   javascripts, and perhaps other items, did not load.
 * Renaming the word fence plugin folder to ‘wordfence’ and restarting the plugin
   fixed all problems.

 * Hi Tim
 * I was about to post a reply saying there were no warnings or errors in the console
   but, before I did, I thought I’d try a different version of PHP. I was running
   5.5, and changed it to 5.3 via .htaccess.
 * At that point, the settings saved okay. Are there issues with php5.5, or is it
   more likely a php config issue?
 * Cheers

 * I’m betting a config issue. Check the php.ini files. Maybe do a diff? See what
   is changed from one in 5.3.
