 * I got an email from LearnDash or Liquid press or whatever they call themselves
   these days that says there is a conflict with your plugin that is affecting my
   site. This is the message, please resolve the issue:
 * _WordPress has a built-in feature that detects when a plugin or theme causes 
   a fatal error on your site, and notifies you with this automated email._
 * _In this case, WordPress caught an error with one of your plugins, Security by
   CleanTalk._
 * _First, visit your website ([https://esolcentre-lms.uk/](https://esolcentre-lms.uk/))
   and check for any visible issues. Next, visit the page where the error was caught(
   [https://esolcentre-lms.uk/wp-login.php](https://esolcentre-lms.uk/wp-login.php))

 * Thank you for the details.
 * Please check if you have the file ../wp-content/plugins/security-malware-firewall/
   lib/CleantalkSP/SpbctWP/Scanner/Surface.php.
 * If not, please download it [from here](https://s3.dualstack.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/cleantalk-ctask-atts/accounts/1/314211/5664b2689c0f41c0/Surface.php)
   or simply reinstall the plugin. If the problem recurs, you will need to determine
   what on your site might be deleting this file.

   plugin that is located here: security-malware-firewall\lib\CleantalkSP\SpbctWP\

 * Additionally, we need to clarify a few details to determine what can delete the
   file. Unfortunately, I’m not able to find your email address to contact. Could
