    I was not able to scan.
    When I try to scan then the error message comes: Scan stop request received.
    Screenshot: https://prnt.sc/1qsxsrl

    In Diagnostics, I find the message:
    wp_remote_post() test back to this server failed! Response was: 403 Forbidden.

    I already crosscheck and whitelist the WordFence IP with WordPress and Cloudflare.

    Please help me to solve the issue.

    Thanks

    Hi @eprince, thanks for reaching out to us.

    The wp_remote_post() issue you’re seeing is usually caused by your site not being allowed to connect back to itself. You should be able to do this by going to your Cloudflare control panel.

    • Login to Cloudflare
    • Go to “Firewall”
    • Click the “Firewall Rules” tab
    • Click “Create a Firewall rule”
    • Name the rule under “Rule Name”
    • Set the “Field” under “When incoming requests match…” to “IP Address”
    • Enter your site’s IP address under “Value”
    • At the bottom, under “Then…Choose an action” change “Block” to “Allow”
    • Click “Deploy

    Your site’s IP can be found at Wordfence > Tools > Diagnostics > Connectivity > IP(s) used by this server. Once you have added your site to the Cloudflare Whitelist, head back over to your site and attempt another scan.

    Let me know if that helps.

    Thanks,

    Peter.
