    Hi there,

    I like the plugin and I am considering getting the pro version. However before I do that, I would like to solve some of the issues it has on my website.

    1. The website is constantly under high traffic and I am not sure if it blocks correctly since it’s on LiteSpeed and behind proxy (option is checked). I couldn’t find anything related to it for LiteSpeed & MariaDB specific settings in the documentation. Can you please provide more info about this topic and how exactly it works.

    2. Second issue is that I can’t get it to work in “standard” mode, it’s only working in Legacy. When I set it in standard mode, it seems to be working well but I get this:
    ERROR: The plugin is initialized in a different mode that does not match the settings. Check the “Load security engine” setting.

    3. I can’t change the login address (doesn’t work properly), while in Legacy mode, I get 403 errors and admins are locked out from the website.

    4. Googlebot and Msnbot are constantly blocked, not sure if they are fake masked bots but looking from the ips, they look legit. Message: “Malicious request denied”

    Thank you and I am looking forward to solving these issues.

    Best regards

    Hi!

    1. The plugin is not created with a specific web server in mind. MariaDB is a perfect companion for WP Cerber, we use it on our servers.
    2. It’s all about folder permissions. Check the Tools / Diagnostic tab (specifically WordPress content folder).
    3. Check the reason for it on the Activity tab, it’s your go-to tool.
    4. They try to get access to something they should not have access to. You can ignore this, this happens from time to time.
