Hi @kranate,
I believe it is used to fade-out the notice once it is dismissed. However, it can be safely removed.
Locate wp-content/plugins/wordfence/lib/wordfenceClass.php
and go to line 5635
:
Change this line:
echo '<div id="wordfenceAutoUpdateChoice" class="fade error"><p><strong>Do you want Wordfence to stay up-to-date automatically?</strong> <a href="#" onclick="wordfenceExt.autoUpdateChoice(\'yes\'); return false;">Yes, enable auto-update.</a> | <a href="#" onclick="wordfenceExt.autoUpdateChoice(\'no\'); return false;">No thanks.</a></p></div>';
to:
echo '<div id="wordfenceAutoUpdateChoice" class="error"><p><strong>Do you want Wordfence to stay up-to-date automatically?</strong> <a href="#" onclick="wordfenceExt.autoUpdateChoice(\'yes\'); return false;">Yes, enable auto-update.</a> | <a href="#" onclick="wordfenceExt.autoUpdateChoice(\'no\'); return false;">No thanks.</a></p></div>';
