  • Those databases belong to your Revolution slider plugin. The bkp usually means backup. You will need to get in touch with the Revslider developer and ask about that. It doesn’t seem to be a hack though. It’s probably related to upgrading the plugin’s version.

    Ok, but what about this

    wp_wfblocks
    wp_wfBlocks7
    wp_wfblocksadv

    wp_wfconfig
    wp_wfConfig

    wp_wfCrawlers
    wp_wfcrawlers

    wp_wffilemods
    wp_wfFileMods

    wp_wfissues
    wp_wfIssues

    This seems strange to me.

    Hi @josmatic, thanks for seeking out our help about these tables.

    The good news is that there’s nothing suspicious here but I’m happy to explain what’s happened to create them and how you can go about deleting them if you wish, although this is not essential.

    Often we’ll see the lower/uppercase (camelcase) name mix duplications of tables when you or your site developer has moved from a Windows to Linux hosting environment. This could just be something as simple as a development phase on a Windows machine to finally going live on the Linux server too.

    You could export your settings at Wordfence > Tools > Import/Export Options, then check the Delete Wordfence tables and data on deactivation checkbox, deactivating your Wordfence plugin in WordPress, reactivating it again and importing the settings you previously exported. Legacy and duplicate tables would be removed automatically.

    Please note that after a reset you would need to optimize the firewall again and disable Learning Mode too. Also, firewall settings like whitelist entries cannot be exported so make a note of these beforehand if you have any.

    Alternatively, if you wish to remove duplicate tables that begin with wp_wf manually, only remove the ones that have an older timestamp as they’re the ones not being currently used.

    Thanks,

    Peter.

    Tnx @wfpeter this explain me a lot. When I migrate from live server to development I use some hash key for importing settings and thats can be catch. Also before migration to another server I delete “_wf” tables” and setup it again at destination server.

    Best regards.

    Hi @josmatic, thanks for your feedback.

    That makes sense, hope you have all the information you need now. If anything crops up with Wordfence in the future that you’d like help with, don’t hesitate to contact us here again in a new topic.

    Peter.
