    Hi,

    In the Wordfence settings, is it possible to set email notifications only in the event of detection of a suspicious or malicious file following a scan?

    The idea is that I do not want to receive a notification regarding a plugin but only in the event of a suspicious file.

    Waiting for a return from you.

    Julian

    Hi @winsa27, thanks for reaching out!

    Whilst you can’t pick to only hear about plugins or files, if you alter Wordfence > All Options > Email Alert Preferences > Alert me with scan results of this severity level or greater to “Critical“, you’ll only hear about the items that require your attention immediately. This does include cases when a plugin update is considered critical due to a previous version containing a confirmed vulnerability but may help reduce your communications.

    You can also reduce our email summaries to “Once a Month“, if you prefer in the Activity Report section below the email alert preferences.

    I can certainly submit your use-case to the team, who’ll discuss the possible separation of file changes and plugin updates as a potential feature request.

    Many thanks,
    Peter.

    Thank you for your reply.

    I have indeed made this setting.

    However I think that an email notification only for suspicious files would be a good thing in Wordfence.

    If this can be integrated into the next updates of your plugin that would be good.

    Thanks @winsa27, we do take each suggestion that our customers have to improve/evolve the product, and discuss them with the QA and development teams. As topics automatically close for replies after a couple of months, we aren’t able to provide ongoing updates about this process here on the forums.

    Our changelog will be the best place to check when new versions of the plugin are released.

    Thanks again,
    Peter.
