    Hi,

    I use .htaccess with .htpasswd to required a user in my web, now I want to scan it with Wordfence but I can′t. I met a ticket(https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/allow-wordfence-to-work-with-password-protected-wp-admin-folder/) but this solution is not working for me.

    This doesn’t work:

    AuthType Basic
    AuthName "Please log in"
    AuthUserFile "/home/www/html/web/.htpasswd"
    
    <RequireAny>
        Require valid-user
        Require ip 127.0.0.1
        Require ip 69.46.36.28
    </RequireAny>
    
    ErrorDocument 401 /401.html

    It doesn’t work either:

    AuthType Basic
    AuthName "Please log in"
    AuthUserFile "/home/www/html/web/.htpasswd"
    Require valid-user
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from 80.147.187.99
    Allow from 69.46.36.0/32
    Allow from 54.68.32.247
    satisfy any

    It’s a new installation of WordPress, I only have a couple of plugins (deactivated) and the default template.

    I’ve tried deactivating the password and I can scan the web. The problem is that in the future I won’t be able to deactivate the password. If I could add Wordfence ips to the list of allowed ips and this works, it would be a very good solution. Is it possible?

    Thanks!
