Firewall prevents Beaver Builder from saving JavaScript code

    I’m not sure if this is due to a recent change, but we started getting reports this week that WordFence’s firewall is blocking AJAX requests when someone is saving a page built with Beaver Builder that contains JavaScript code.

    Would it be possible for WordFence to default to whitelisting Beaver Builder requests? I’m aware that it’s possible to whitelist from within the interface, but some people have many pages, so that might not be the most user-friendly way to go about it.

    Let me know if there is anything that can be done.

    Thanks!

  • Hello Justin,
    we can not whitelist whole plugins but we can whitelist certain patterns. Could you email me a list of the type of requests you would like to have whitelisted? These will be gathered at the bottom of the “Firewall” page of any WordPress installation with Wordfence that has been in “Learning mode” while using the functionality you want to whitelist.

    Did you find a solution? A pattern to allow all requests from Beaver Builder?

    Thanks a lot. I think is a real problem for users of Beaver Builder and Wordfence (as me).

    Sorry, somehow I missed this message.

    All Beaver Builder AJAX data is stored in the “fl_builder_data” $_POST key. Is it possible to use that in your patterns?
