 * Trying to analyze a client’s Divi theme website. When we run Lighthouse in Chrome
   Developer tools a few times we get banned from the site. A Wordfence screen comes
   up.
 * We had to use VPN to be able to access the site again.
 * How do we tell Wordfence to allow specific site testing tools? This will become
   super important as we prep sites for Google Page Experience.
 * Thanks.

 * Hello [@dailyvideo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dailyvideo/) and thanks
   for reaching out to us!
 * If you get locked out in the future, you can follow these steps to regain access:
    - Please use FTP/SFTP — or any file manager your web host provides via their
      administration panel.
    - Look inside the **/wp-content/plugins/** directory and rename the **wordfence**
      directory to **wordfence.bak**.
    - Once you have logged in to your WordPress admin you can name the folder back
      to **wordfence** again.
    - Refresh your dashboard and you should be able to see Wordfence Active again.
      If not, go to the Plugins page and Activate it.
 * As for your block reason, can you navigate to Tools > Live Traffic and find your
   IP that was blocked, click on it to expand it. What is the reason it says you
   were blocked?
 * Thanks!
