Hi Gerroald,
Staying on the same topic, how do we know that the attack is taking place? I am on the Live Traffic section and see BOT activities from Google, FB, Bing …. but how can I tell which is an attack and which is friendly?Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Wordfence Security - Firewall, Malware Scan, and Login Security] BOT AttackApologies for so many messages but I am new to WP and WF and not sure if this is a website hacking attack or friendly bots trying to parse the site or something? Appreciate your advice.

Hi Dave,
Thank you for your reply. This is what I see:blocked by firewall for SQL Injection in POST body: data=%3Cp%3E%5Bvc_row%5D%5Bvc_column%5D%5Bvc_custom_heading%20text%3D%22%26gt%3B%26gt%3B%20Ramadan%20Kare… at https://www.jobsfornationals.com/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php
This is me logging in. I have never had these errors before. What should I do? Should I just select the ‘whitelist param from firewall’?
Looking at the Blocked IP the number of block counts have gone up from 145 times to 153? Could you please explain how this is happening? Is someone using my IP address?? What should I do since I unblocked the IP?
Hi @wfdave,
Lower or increase the attempts someone can try to login?
Thank you for the prompt reply! Will do.
Hi,
When this happens and the ‘fix’ is rolled out, do we get the fix in form of a plugin update? I am new to WP and not a developer and would not know how to ‘overwrite the files in the server’. How will i manage something like this when the website crashes or somthing?Thank you for the clarification. I am totally new to WP and probably should not have posted the comment here. The scary thing is that hacking or website broken seems to be common on the WP platform. Where do we report that to WP Owners? Is there a forum for that as well?
This is scary as I am now to WP but never thought there would be a problem deactivating plugins. What other solutions are out there that are safe in your opinion?

In reply to: [Wordfence Security - Firewall, Malware Scan, and Login Security] Top domainThank you for the clarification. As you can tell I am new to the platform.
I also read that some users had problems with the auto-update functionality where their website went down after WF got automatically updated on their live site. Should i disable this on my live site?
If this ever happened with me I would not even know what to do since I am not a developer and don’t have access to one either.

In reply to: [WP Hide & Security Enhancer] PluginsOkay so should i install the free version plugin in WP first or should i just buy the pro directly from the website?
How do i get the DNS-IP? Is there an online support where we can chat?
Plus you will make a backup copy of the website before installing? THIS IS A LIVE WEBSITE NOW.

In reply to: [WP Hide & Security Enhancer] PluginsPlease provide link to the website for purchase.
Are are also in the process of connecting the domain to the host, should we wait for this to complete before you can do the setup or should we do it before the DNS connection?
