Thanks, emailed. If you could post it here that would help – Wordfence the plugin is open source so the code will become public anyway.

In reply to: [Wordfence Security - Firewall, Malware Scan, and Login Security] Remove annoying "Congratulations" popup

Hi Keith,

This is actually a serious problem that indicates Wordfence isn’t functioning correctly.

What is supposed to happen when you close that dialog is that Wordfence writes an entry into the database saying that you closed it and to not show it again. That is not happening which means that either Wordfence can’t write to your DB or that ajax requests aren’t functioning on your site.

Regards,

Mark.

So what happened? Did AddDefaultCharset fix it?

Hi,

I haven’t used OSSEC so I’m afraid I can’t be much help to you on this. It sounds like a side-by-side comparison might be helpful. I wonder if anyone else in the community can comment on OSSEC vs Wordfence or using the two side-by-side?

Hi Jackie,

No, they will only be blocked from logging in.

If you want to block them from the whole site, the only way to do this is to block their current IP address. Remember that if they use a different IP, e.g. they go to a coffee shop and sign onto the wifi, they will still be able to access it.

Mark.

OK that’s perfect. Please try the following:

Go in and manually edit your .htaccess file.

Below the line that says:

#WFCACHECODE – Do not remove this line. Disable Web Caching in Wordfence to remove this data.

Add this line:

AddDefaultCharset utf-8

Then try to reload the page that you’re seeing the problem on.

If it works, please let me know because I’ll add this as an option.

Regards,

Mark.

Awesome, glad you found it.

Try doing a manual scan and verify it can scan at all.

In reply to: [Wordfence Security - Firewall, Malware Scan, and Login Security] Mixed Collation

Plugin Author Mark Maunder

11 years, 12 months ago

I don’t think this is us. We don’t specify collation in MySQL when creating the tables. We only specify ‘default charset=utf8’.

So we’re using whatever the default is for utf8. Check out lib/wfSchema.php specifically the create() and createAll() functions.

Mark.

Hi,

Are you using a custom admin theme? Can you inspect one of the elements in your browser to see which Wordfence rule (if any) is changing the appearance?

Are you seeing timeouts or 500 internal server errors? 10 minutes is a long time – usually you’ll at least get a timeout or 500 error from a server within 300 seconds (5 minutes) if there’s an issue.

In reply to: [Wordfence Security - Firewall, Malware Scan, and Login Security] Warning Directory Indexing Enabled??

Plugin Author Mark Maunder

Sorry but we don’t provide support for other security products here. Please contact them for more info about the exact meaning of the warning. FYI, it means that someone can see the contents of your web directory – not sure which one.

Wordfence does not fix this – it is something you need to change in your website configuration.

In reply to: [Wordfence Security - Firewall, Malware Scan, and Login Security] How Do I Completely Uninstall Wordfence on an WPMU Nginx Install?

Plugin Author Mark Maunder
(@mmaunder)

11 years, 12 months ago

Hi,

We don’t make any automatic changes to nginx.conf. Only .htaccess and when you disable caching or Wordfence those are removed.

You can use the Wordfence Assistant plugin also available in the repository to remove all data, or just check the box at the bottom of the Wordfence options page to remove all data on uninstall, hit save and then disable the plugin and delete it.

Regards,

Mark.

Please tell me what web server you are running. You can get this info by going to the Wordfence options page at the bottom and click system information.
