Blocked Entries – XSS: Cross Site Scripting

Hi @ma3ry,

Are you by any chance using the plugin WP Broken Link Status Checker on another website?

This plugin scans all the links on a website ( based on your scan settings, https://i.imgur.com/ZnxQzE2.png ), and reports if any links are broken.

There’s two ways you could unblock traffic:

1. Unblock any traffic coming from WP Broken Link Status Checker.

This method would allow any website (not just the ones you own), to use WP Broken Link Status Checker to see if your site is online or not.

To do this:

A) Go into Wordfence -> All Options -> Whitelisted URLs
B) Put / for the URL
C) Select Param Type: POST Body for the dropdown
D) Put headers for the Param Name
E) Add, and Save Changes

2. Unblock only your other site

This method would whitelist your other site’s IP address entirely, so your other site will never show up blocked within Live Traffic / Firewall.

To do this:

A) Go to Wordfence -> All Options -> Advanced Firewall Options
B) Put 142.44.176.145 within `Whitelisted IP addresses that bypass all rules
C) Save Changes

Example: https://i.imgur.com/R4HZTBj.png

You could also apply both options, allowing WP Broken Link Status Checker and your other site to connect.

Many thanks! That is exactly what I needed. I had already whitelisted the IP so also added option #1. It is perfect!

Much appreciated!
