Compatibility with P3 profiler plugin

    P3 profiler apparently gathers data by simulating lots of requests that appear to come from the login that starts the scan. This triggers blocking by wordfence.
    Is there an easy way to get these two to co-exist?

    Thanks!

    Hi @winkelr,

    P3 Plugin Performance Profiler is a tool that we have found helpful in the past for certain site speed/resource issues, so it is not something we actively seek to block.

    However, if you are seeing blocks, it’s possible that Learning Mode could solve the issue. From the Wordfence Dashboard click on Manage WAF. Then you will see Basic Firewall Options > Web Application Firewall Status. Change the option to Learning Mode. This will help Wordfence learn that any actions during this time are normal and it will allow them in the future.

    During this time, try to perform some actions with P3 that were causing issues.

    Afterwards, switch the WAF from Learning Mode back to Enabled and Protecting.

    Let me know how you get on.

    Peter.
