 * Hi,
 * Just noticed that wordfence emits a call from client (browser) to server of this
   type
 * [https://example.com/?wordfence_lh=1&hid=7A302CFF3D4FCDF3659569BXXXXXXXXX&r=0.374592099999999](https://example.com/?wordfence_lh=1&hid=7A302CFF3D4FCDF3659569BXXXXXXXXX&r=0.374592099999999)
 * Would be nice if it returned a no-cache header (suspecting we don’t want proxies
   to cache this)
 * The other problem I had is with a varnish setup to catch badly behaving backends
   that spots empty 200 response and restarts the query.
    Would be really nice if
   this returned something as dummy as {‘OK’}, at least not to have Content-Length:
   0
 * Hope this can be helpful
 * (I really like your plugin, find it well coded, this is why I take the time to
   share my thougts)
 * Have a nice day
 * Antony

 * As it seams that managing headers within wordpress can be problematic, an other
   way to bypass proxy cache could be to add a &no-cache to the query string, would
   make it easy to spot.

 * sorry for typo, seems like &nocache would be more common

 * Hi Antony,
 * Thanks for your suggestion, I’ve logged this as a feature request to our team(
   internal reference number: FB7343), although I’m not sure if this can be seen
   in one of the plugin’s upcoming releases or not, but all suggestions are evaluated
   by our dev team and considered seriously.
 * Thanks.
