hello, why did SlickStack disable WordFence whenever I activate this plugin.
FrancesGuestand what about WordFence Assistant
HelenGuestwhy are you using Wordfence? doesn’t it require Apache and htaccess not really for Nginx servers?
AmberGuesthttps://www.linode.com/community/questions/22059/nginx-vs-litespeedapache-for-wordpress-security
it can use Nginx
but if you use Nginx or Slickstack why use Wordfence…
AnnGuesthello, why did SlickStack disable WordFence
There are several WordPress plugins that SlickStack will disable by default, either because they are malware/spyware type of stuff, or directly conflict with the SlickStack configuration and functionality.
WordFence and Sucuri are both blacklisted by default because they “hack” core files and conflict with SlickStack’s built-in server-level security features such as rate-limiting of wp-login attempts, blocking XML-RPC DDOS attacks, and such.
FrankGuestyou can use your custom blacklist.txt if you want @OP
AlexisGuestWordfence is better for low-end shared hosting with bad security like cPanel servers and bloated WP themes and websites that never update their plugins and full of bloated code and security holes…
If you use quality and lightweight code and cloud servers or premium type of WP hosting you should not have any necessary for Wordfence guys.
ChristopherGuestavoid .htaccess files if you care about security!!
NicoleGuestSamuelGuestWordfence adds HUGE amounts of data and tables to your mysql… I know they are open source and not Saas so it makes sense. But holy crap.
BrittanyGuesttry Jeff’s BBQ plugin linked in the other thread.
JustinGuestWordfence also discriminates against Russians and disabled the security of their paying customers’ websites in Russia…. trying to simp for the neolibs after Democrats anti-Russian hate campaign in 2022
Talk about cringe 🤮
