    Can someone please help? I have the free version. Live Traffic suddenly stops working. “Your Site Activity in Real-Time”
    is being automatically turned off after updating to the latest wordfence version.
    I really need this to work as I think I have a lot of spam bot traffic currently.
    Thanks in advance

    Forgot to mention that I know Falcon automatically disables Live Traffic. Problem is I didn’t enable Falcon. I only updated Wordfence to the latest version.

    The fact that Live Traffic is disabled will not affect the security of your site, just your ability to view the detailed records of visits.

    Have you tried checking Options – Basic Options – Enable Live Traffic View

    Yes, the Enable Live Traffic View option is what is being turned off automatically even when I enable it manually.
    The reason I want to see Live Traffic is because I had some spam bot visits recently and I could block them once I saw what they were in Live Traffic. I think I have the same problem now (spikes in traffic) but no idea what those bots are. Is there any other way to see where traffic is coming from?

    Ok, so the problem is resolved. After the update, another caching plugin I use was interfering with the Life Traffic. I disable that plugin, enabled live traffic and then enabled the caching plugin again. It now works fine.
