The host is WP Engine. I have several sites on this host without this issue, but I have several other sites on the same host account that are getting this same issue in the scan results. Thank you! * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Wordfence Security - Firewall, Malware Scan, and Login Security] Web Application Firewall is disabled Type: WAF Status](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/web-application-firewall-is-disabled-type-waf-status-2/) * Thread Starter [bcs213](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bcs213/) * (@bcs213) * [3 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/web-application-firewall-is-disabled-type-waf-status-2/#post-16813879) * Hello, The message I shared is the description from a scan result listed as “ Critical”. The details from this error in the scan read as “Wordfence’s Web Application Firewall has been unexpectedly disabled. If you see a notice at the top of the Wordfence admin pages that says “The Wordfence Web Application Firewall cannot run,” click the link in that message to rebuild the configuration. If this does not work, you may need to fix file permissions.” * When I go to Wordfence > Firewall > All Firewall Options, it shows the following message at the top of the page (which has no links in it): “The WAF storage engine is currently set to mysqli, but Wordfence is unable to use the database. The WAF will fall back to using local file system storage instead.” * In the Basic Firewall options it is currently showing as “Enabled and Protecting”. * Please let me know if you need anything else. Thank you! * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[CartFlows – Funnel Builder & Checkout Plugin for WooCommerce] Missing label for Coupon Code field](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-label-for-coupon-code-field/) * Thread Starter [bcs213](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bcs213/) * (@bcs213) * [5 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-label-for-coupon-code-field/#post-13589207) * Duh… it was just the placeholder text color that I needed to update.
