    Another great release from the team who have been hard at work. We’ve added some requests from users and fixed a few bugs that have come up. As always thanks for helping make Wordfence great and being the best WordPress community ever.

    5.3.9

    • Premium Feature: Password Auditing. Audit the strength of your admin and user-level passwords against our GPU based auditing cluster. Easily alert users to weak passwords or force a password change.
    • Feature: Activity email summary. See options page to enable a weekly, bi-weekly or monthly activity summary.
    • Feature: Activity summary dashboard widget.
    • Fix: Fixed bug on plugin activation where the configuration table was being queried before it was created.
    • Improvement: Added .htaccess to wfcache directory.
    • Improvement: Switched to using wp_remote_post for Wordfence cloud API calls to improved SSL support and a more standards based approach.

  • My site just auto-upgraded to this, and I immediately got “website down” notices from both Jetpack and Pingdom. Sure enough, I visited my site, and every request was met with a 403 Forbidden error. Here is the relevant entry from my apache log:

    client denied by server configuration: /var/www/wp-content/wfcache/mydomain.com_/~~~~_wfcache_https.html

    I replaced my actual domain with ‘mydomain.com’

    I’ve had to disable Wordfence’s performance options completely in order to restore access to the site.

    do not install 5.30 if you use Falcon caching!

    tim: does 5.3.10 remove the .htaccess file if it’s there?

    update: checked and YES it does. Thanks.

    Wow, that was fast! Thanks for the fix. It works! Going to check out the new features now.
