    When you click “Add Param to Firewall Allowlist” to allow a particular block that showed up as 403 in the live traffic, where then do you go to edit/modify any whitelisted rules?

    Hi @matty_dubs,

    You can see the allowlisted params created in this way by visiting Wordfence > All Options > Allowlisted URLs. They can be created, enabled, disabled or deleted from here. You can read more here: https://www.wordfence.com/help/firewall/options/#whitelist

    Thanks,

    Peter.

    I did check there, but it’s empty. I had an issue adding an HTML block in Elementor, I then checked live traffic and found the block, whitelisted it, then successfully added the HTML block (so I know the whitelisted action worked). But when checking the Allowlisted URLs section, it is empty.

    Hi @matty_dubs,

    If the original reason it was being blocked was because of another rule (such as rate limiting) rather than an unsafe GET/POST URL with params to be allowlisted, it would result in not showing in that list.

    Viewing your Live Traffic page and expanding the original blocked entry to see the reason given by Wordfence may shed more light on why it was disallowed before Learning Mode.

    Thanks,

    Peter.
