# Help with comment behaviour

 * This is a two-part question.
 * First of all, I have a member who frequently tries to post comments while not
   signed in and his comments are always held in the moderation queue. The Wordfence
   setting: “Hold anonymous comments using member emails for moderation” is NOT 
   checked. I (an admin) don’t have this problem if I post while logged out, however
   this member does share an IP address with another administrator. Could this have
   something tp do with it? How can I fix this?
 * Secondly, I have had two reports from visitors unable to post comments in the
   last few days. One keeps getting a 404 error when submitting their comment and
   the other keeps getting a message that they must ensure they “have the correct
   site” before posting. Could these problems be linked to Wordfence? I can find
   nothing in the site logs that would explain these errors.
 * Thank you.
 * Edit: Also what does this mean in my raw access logs?
    `GET /?wordfence_logHuman
   =1&hid=10F8C5275F3FE85B02BC405C79DBB41B&r=0.2643856983631849` It appears right
   after: `POST /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php` so clearly related to a visitor posting
   a comment.

 * Hi,
    Actually, both issues seem to be not related to Wordfence, regarding the
   first one, I think it could be another plugin messing with comments moderation
   functions, or one of the WordPress [comments moderation](https://codex.wordpress.org/Comment_Moderation)
   options, which I recommend to double check them.
 * For the second issue, again, it has nothing to do with Wordfence, disabling other
   installed plugins and switching back to the default WordPress theme would be 
   a good start to debug this issue.
 * Finally, “wordfence_logHuman” is used while checking if the visitor to your website
   is human or bot, then report it back to Wordfence Live Traffic log and other 
   plugin’s modules.
 * Thanks.

 * wfalaa – is there any way to filter out those “wordfence_logHuman” entries automatically
   in the Live View (feature request!) 🙂
 * It really is pointless information to have in the live feed since it’s WF self-
   generated call for essentially WF purposes only!

 * [@bluebearmedia](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bluebearmedia/) Actually,
   URLs with “wordfence_logHuman” query parameter shouldn’t be there in “Live Traffic”
   log in the first place, a plugin or theme conflict might cause this issue, like
   a plugin with “changing relative URLs” function for example.
 * The URL [@hungrynow](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hungrynow/) mentioned
   was logged in the server raw requests log, where every single request must be
   logged there for sure.
 * Thanks.

 * wfalaa – I know this has come up before, but I have many clients sites that are
   showing the “wordfence_logHuman” entries in the live feed – with most of them
   having minimal plug-ins!
 * Having said that, I’ve noticed there are far less of these entries with more 
   recent versions of WF than there were in the past…

 * Ah, I see. It would be helpful if you can share with me a couple of screenshots
   showing these URL structures, you can just email them to “alaa [at] wordfence[
   dot] com”, because in [that old thread here](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-114/),
   I can see the URLs were displaying in a strange structure, so the plugin/theme
   conflict approach was the closest one in that case.
 * Thanks.
