Large wordfence php file over 4MB?

  • Hello –
    I’v been using the Duplicator plugin to backup & duplicate my site for over a year. I just installed this Wordfence plugin and now Duplicator is complaining about a Large file (over 4MB).
    Below is the message I get:

    Large files such as movies or other backuped data can cause issues with timeouts. The current check for large files is 4MB per file. If your having issues creating a package consider excluding these files with the files filter and manually moving them to your new location.

    [Show Paths]
    FILE 0:
    /home/content/89/9196089/html/NTCEDORG/wp-content/plugins/wordfence/lib/wfBrowscapCache.php [4.19MB]

    What exactly is this file and is there a way to reduce its size?
    Thanks!

  • The warning seems to say the 4MB is set due to the possibility of a timeout. I’d modify the define.php file and change the DUPLICATOR_SCAN_WARNFILESIZE entry to 5242880 (5 megs). If it times out, scale it back a bit. Wordfence may notice this modification and warn you about it, which you can Ignore. Remember that if Duplicator gets an update, it’ll reset the limit back to 4MB.

    The file you’re asking about looks to be a listing of well-known browser agent strings.
