The server world is a bit of unknown land for me, but I found this post:[https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordfence-web-application-firewall-on-one-com/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordfence-web-application-firewall-on-one-com/) And it seem like it’s the same as your saying.

Do you then recommend waiting to activate and install it until the site is live?

I have tried the different things in the “If your scans aren’t starting” section. * I have tried the different steps several times, and after the first time I tried to do the remote scan this came up “The scan has failed to start. This is often because the site either cannot make outbound requests or is blocked from connecting to itself.” * Maybe I don’t understand it correctly, but nothing seems to work.
