 * This looks like exactly the plugin I need for a number of sites but I have a 
   question:
 * Does it or will it support ClassicPress as well as WordPress? ClassicPress is
   a fork of WordPress 4.9.x, currently in Beta, with a 1.0 release due soon. More
   info at classicpress.net . It’s already gaining popularity among people who don’t
   like Gutenberg.
 * If MalCare’s scanner compares installed files with the WordPress core repository,
   then it probably won’t be compatible (because ClassicPress has changed some core
   files), but if it scans files for malware signatures, then it should be OK. Can
   you advise how the scanning works?

 * Hi,
 * At this time, we are compatible with ClassicPress. The changes to the core files
   will not be an issue. Our scanners will automaically handle such changes.
 * However, we will await to see how ClassicPress before officially supoorting it
   in the long run.
 * Thanks

 * Thanks very much for clarifying. I’ll test it on a ClassicPress install on a 
   spare domain before rolling out across more sites.
