Wordfence 6.0.5 is live!

WARNING WARNING WARNING – DON”T APPLY THIS UPDATER

I applied the lastest WordFence update mentioned above and it completely stopped the site from presenting any pages….. The site no longer presents any public pages and I can’t get access to the login page. I have posted a ticket with WordFence but for now – I would not apply this plugin update…..

DON”T APPLY THIS UPDATE — SOMETHING ISN”T WORKING CORRECTLY.

I will post a follow up once I hear from WordFence

WordFence support came through – apparently my site was applying the update just as WordFence support was patching the upgrade causing an incomplete update of my plugin.

They recommended removing WF and then reinstalling; what I ended up doing was renaming the WordFence directory (which them allowed me to get into the site); WordPress Plugins still displayed WordFence as an installed plugin but indicated that it was deactivated and that there was an update available. I applied the update and then activated the plugin and everything worked. When I checked options/settings/etc. everything was back to normal and working.

Other than this being somewhat frustrating that an update can be partially applied because the original source is in the middle of being updated/patched (chance timing) – the WordFence support was great and responded quickly. Love the product and am pleased with their support. Would suggest some time of lockup feature for plugin updates to prevent this type of thing from happening.

Latest update has broken half of my sites all I get is:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FUNCTION in /home/geofones/webapps/geof/wp-content/plugins/wordfence/lib/wordfenceClass.php on line 509
When trying to access the sites ??

Thank you ekgc – weird that only 15 of my 30 WP sites were affected when I upgraded Wordfence when using Infinite Word Press to upgrade them all.

All seems to be OK now

Got a report that files associated with this plugin were modified this morning which seemed odd as I didn’t get a notification there was an upgrade. I deleted and re-installed the plugin. Now getting this warning: Warning: call_user_func() expects parameter 1 to be a valid callback, class ‘wfScanEngine’ does not have a method ‘scan_options’ in /xxx/xxx/public_html/wp-content/plugins/ (line 126 – i think). Any suggestions?

Same error message as dogstalker:

Please confirm you are using version 6.0.5 and not 6.0.4. Also I will need the php version on your website. Post in forums at https://www.ads-software.com/support/plugin/wordfence and not here. Any support issues posted in this post will not be answered.
