    Hello @jrmora and thanks for reaching out to us!

    It’s possible that your website does not serve the wordfence_lh link correctly. It should be serving an empty page. However, sometimes themes use the WordPress template redirect hook incorrectly which results in all requests with a query string end up serving the full contents of the page. This would cause Google to think there is a full copy of your page under that URL.

    I always recommend clearing any cache plugins you might have but also ask your host about any server-side cache that might need to be cleared as well.

    Can you send a diagnostic report to wftest @ wordfence . com? You can find the link to do so at the top of the Wordfence Tools > Diagnostics page. Then click on “Send Report by Email”. Please add your forum username where indicated and respond here after you have sent it.

    Thanks again!

    Hello @wfadam
    Thank you But I think you didn’t understand me or I didn’t write it right.
    I uninstalled Wordfence months ago, possibly a year ago (so I can’t generate a diagnostic from Wordfence), since then I’ve even changed cache plugin, template and hosting. Those links should have disappeared by now.
    I’ve looked for references to those url’s in the database, in robots.txt, in .htaccess or everywhere I’ve suspected that they might reference those strings and I haven’t been able to find them.

    I would be grateful for any further hints you could give me.
    Regards

    Part of the live traffic data table has to still be active. Are these new links in google or are these the same ones from before?

    Usually, these will go away after some time but sometimes you have to request a recrawl from google. This StackOverflow article will help with requesting a recrawl.

    https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9466360/how-to-request-google-to-re-crawl-my-website

    Just to verify that the tables are removed correctly, I would recommend installing the Wordfence Assistant plugin, then remove all data tables using it.

    Let me know how this goes! The recrawl once you verified the tables are gone would be the best step.

    Thanks again!

    Thanks @wfadam
    I don’t know if they are the same errors because I don’t remember the exact strings of this error from before, but Search Console reports them as new.

    I already cleaned the tables with the Wordfence Assistant plugin months ago when I uninstalled it and I did it again some time later.

    I didn’t find any reference of WF in the database (is there any other prefix besides WF?) so I find it strange that the errors in those strings appear again.
    I have requested the recrawl again and now I have to wait.

    I’ll let you know if I any luck with the process this time.
    Regards

    Just reply here if the recrawl doesn’t resolve the issue. I will have an alert set to email me.

    Thanks again!

    Hello, @wfadam

    How are you doing?
    I remind you of our conversation as you told me.

    The recrawl did not solve it.The crawl errors in Google Search Console are coming back periodically.

    Now on this other url:
    https://www.jrmora.com/blog/page/374/?wordfence_logHuman=1&hid=100CF5C7BD1AA4960755FAB5B415F43A
    It’s very strange because it shouldn’t appear anymore. Any other hints to make them disappear would be appreciated.
    Regards
    JR
