 * Hi,
 * Been meaning to ask this for over a year.
 * I have never seen, using this > Filter Traffic: Haman – any ‘human’ visitor stats?
 * Now of course, we get tones of visitors every hour but have never been such being‘
   detected’ by WF?
 * Filter Traffic : Human is supposed to show that, right?
 * Regards,

 * Same here, been meaning to ask about zero results with human filter. Last week
   I would see humans with human filter. This week installed Falcon. Don’t know 
   if that is the cause or not but I no longer see any results whatsoever with human
   filter, totally blank. As a test, I turned Falcon off, turned on Live Traffic,
   still no results in human filter, so maybe not related to Falcon after all. I
   know from Google Analytics and Host stats that there are human visitors. Troublesome
   that WF is not seeing them. Today cleared data with the WF Assistant plugin. 
   If that restores human view I’ll add another reply.

 * Same here, I just checked my Wordfence block list and while it has hundreds of
   listings, not one is shown as “human.” Wordfence does seem to have features that
   work one day, then the next time you check they don’t appear to be doing anything,
   usually after an update. This could be one of those. Or else the methods of detecting
   bots vs humans are just getting too unwieldy to have any sort of function and
   instead just sit there, confusing us with blank screens…

 * Results after clearing WF data with WF Assistant:
 * Google Analytics Human count: 41.
    (Google reports only 1/3 human visitors counted
   by Host — there may have been more human visitors.)
 * WF TOTAL COUNT: 4 (Of which 2 were Me and should have been more as I emptied 
   cache then called all pages to refresh cache.)
 * WF HUMAN COUNT: 0 (Even though 2 of them were me.)
 * WF IPs Blocked: 1 “Russia was blocked: Exceeded the maximum global requests per
   minute for crawlers or humans.” But I cannot prove that IP warranted blocking
   because their IP report shows only two hits, and both were to valid URLs.
 * Added WF premium as due diligence in protecting user data. But it seems WF reported
   better before premium. I do not know if WF is protecting but not reporting, or
   not protecting at all.

 * The blocked logging seems to be related to the WF Basic and WF Falcon caching.
   Have posted that query on a new topic.

 * Hi All,
    When “Falcon Engine” or “Basic caching” is activated, the “Live Activity”
   will be disabled.
 * You may have seen this warning on the top of “Live Traffic” page if you have “
   Falcon Engine” activated:
 * > Live activity is disabled. This is done to improve performance because you 
   > have Wordfence Falcon Engine enabled. Login and firewall activity will still
   > appear below.
 * Also, please check “[Live Traffic View](http://docs.wordfence.com/en/Wordfence_options#Live_Traffic_View)”
   options under (Wordfence > Options), maybe you set one of the options there that
   could prevent logging some visits.
 * Another thing that may prevent Wordfence logHuman script (which logs human visits)
   is using any of those plugins that combine/minify scripts on your website, conflicts
   between these scripts may happen and through errors that can be see on “[JavaScript Console](https://docs.wordfence.com/en/Open_the_JavaScript_console_for_troubleshooting_plugins)”
   in your browser when you visit your website “while not being logged-in”.
 * [@wilderbee](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wilderbee/) I also replied to
   your [other thread here](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wf-basic-or-falcon-cache-blocks-logging?replies=3#post-8730178).
 * Thanks.
