 * The problem continues on all of my sites. Imagine checking status of WordFence
   Firewall several times a day on 15+ sites, or even just once a day.
 * Is this problem limited to the free version or it exists also in the paid version?
 * Is it possible at least to get email notification when WFF goes back to the learning
   mode, or WF “wakes up” and finds WFF in the learning mode?

 * BTW WordFence keeps its other settings intact, it doesn’t reset them to default
   values, so it must have some other way to preserve data. Why is firewall on/off
   switch an exception?

 * Hi Peter, thank you for your answer.
 * DB credentials are in the wp-config, just checked it.
   My WP installation is pretty
   standard, no exotic customizations.
 * Does WordFence make some log entry that can be checked, so we can learn the reason
   of the failure?
 * Why WordFence doesn’t inform me when it switches back to learning mode? Receiving
   warning email and manually switching it back to working mode is frustrating, 
   but checking every day on many sites is much worse.
 * Regards
   Dark

 * I’m not in PHP but I found out this works

    // CHECK IF PAGE
   IS IN GOOGLE INDEX if (strstr(file_get_contents(“[http://www.google.com/search?q=site:$linkFrom&#8221](http://www.google.com/search?q=site:$linkFrom&#8221);),‘
   did not match any documents’)) { // Page is not in the index return [ ‘text’ 
   => ‘P_A_G_E___N_O_T___I_N_D_E_X_E_D’]; }
 *  $response = wp_remote_get( $linkFrom, [
