 * Sites using lsapi instead of mod_php
 * If your site uses “lsapi” and shows that “Basic WordPress Protection” is still
   active after the firewall optimization, you may need to add the section below
   to your .htaccess file. This will be detected automatically in a future version.
   You can confirm if your site is using “lsapi” by going to the Tools page on the
   Wordfence menu and clicking the Diagnostics tab, then click the link that says“
   Click to view your system’s configuration in a new window” near the bottom of
   the page. If the Server API field near the top of that page says “LiteSpeed”,
   search for $_SERVER[‘SERVER_SOFTWARE’] near the bottom of the page, and if you
   find “Apache” there, this change should be what you need:
 * <IfModule lsapi_module>
    php_value auto_prepend_file ‘/path/to/wordfence-waf.
   php’ </IfModule>

 * Hi,
    You should use the pre-selected option that has “(recommended based on our
   tests)” which I think is “Apache + mod_php” in your case, then apply instructions
   mentioned in “[Sites using lsapi instead of mod_php](https://docs.wordfence.com/en/Web_Application_Firewall_Setup#Sites_using_lsapi_instead_of_mod_php)“.
 * Thanks.

 * Hi [@maweb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maweb/)
    Since I haven’t heard
   back from you I am assuming that the instructions helped you solve your issue
   so I am marking this topic as resolved.
 * If however, for whatever reason, you are still experiencing this issue and it
   is not resolved please respond to the post, which will move it back up the queue,
   and mark this topic as “not resolved”.
 * Thank you.
