 * I’m having some sudden bizarre plugin conflicts on two of my sites. One involves
   WordFence conflicting with both Jetpack and bbPress. This issue started right
   about the time WordPress upgraded to 5.4.2
 * Has anyone else been having similar problems?
 * Thanks

 * Hey [@redtravelmaster](https://wordpress.org/support/users/redtravelmaster/),
 * Can you please switch the Firewall into Learning Mode and let me know if it helps?

 * Please let me know.

 * The only issue with Jetpack would be if you disabled XML-RPC or have it set to
   Require 2FA for XML-RPC call authentication. I don’t know of any specific issues
   being reported with BBPress but setting the firewall into learning mode, performing
   the action that was blocked (if it is a user action being blocked make sure and
   perform the action from a browser that is not logged in), and then enabling the
   firewall again. That would whitelist it going forward. It’s possible BBPress 
   uses XML-RPC too but as I am unfamiliar with it, I wanted you to get the other
   method too.
 * Since we haven’t heard back from you for a bit, I’ll close this case out. Feel
   free to reopen it if needed.
