WAF

  • I have Wordfence installed on all of my sites and they I have run “Optimized Wordfense Firewall” on the root site (www.URTech.ca). All other sites are in subfolders on that site.

    One of the subsites (www.VoteLeela.com) had some malicious files installed and today WF removed them. I was about to “Optimized Wordfense Firewall” of this sub site (www.VoteLeela.com) but found it said to contact support through this forum it I do not recognize a file (/home/content/22/7568022/html/wordfence-waf.php ). I do not recognize that file; in fact looking through FileZilla, I don’t even recognize the path.

    To be clear the folder stucture is:
    https://www.URTech.ca is the WordPress primary site (hosted by GoDaddy) and I have a dozen other WordPress sites (including https://www.VoteLeela.com) in folders in the root https://www.URTech.ca directory.

    What should I do to “Optimized Wordfense Firewall” on these subsites?

    Thanks.

  • Hi @calgarytech,

    If I’m understanding correctly, you’re saying that your site is hosted like this?

    /folder
    /urtech.ca
    /wp-admin/
    /voteleela.com/
    /wp-admin/
    /another-site.com/
    /wp-admin/

    In this case, you may only need to install Wordfence once on the root site (urtech.ca) and Wordfence’s WAF will also run on the subdomain sites as well.

    Can you check if this is the case?
    To check, only have Wordfence installed on urtech.ca, then on another site, such as voteleela.com, visit the site and see if it shows up in live traffic (on urtech.ca).

    Yes, that is how I have it setup.

    Thanks I will leave only the root site with a WAF.

    … any idea what /home/content/22/7568022/html/wordfence-waf.php is ?

    Thanks.
