File permissions are set to 755 for the wp-content folder. Even if I change to 777 it still doesn’t work.

max_execution_time is set to 30 in cPanel. Hostpapa says it won’t appear in php.ini but it is set.

I changed Maximum execution time for each scan stage from 10 to 15 and ran a scan which completed successfully, so I think this is resolved.

Thank you!

Thanks Peter,

FWIW I should have also mentioned that I’m using the free version of Wordfence and I have Basic Scan Options set to Limited Scan.

I made the change to Use only IPv4 to start scans and I’ll see if that fixes it.

I looked at php.ini in the root folder and there is no max_execution_time setting. I checked some of the sub-folders and didn’t see another instance of php.ini. I’ll contact HostPapa about that.

Those IPs are blocked now because Wordfence stopped them and I manually blocked them. IDK which plugin runs first. Is there a way to tell?

Thank you!

Perfect. Thank you!

Ok all steps completed. There was nothing unusual in .htaccess but there were a bunch of folders that had to be deleted. I’ll keep an eye on it. Thank you.

In the process of doing this, I found a w3-total-cache_disabled folder in wp-content/upgrade-temp-backup. Maybe my hosting company created that folder? The wp-content/upgrade folder is empty.

Hi Marko. Thanks for your reply. I deactivated it and deleted it. I just checked via FTP and it’s not in my plugins directory. I do see some of the other folders that you mentioned though. I’ll follow your instructions and see what happens.

Thanks Peter. The message says:

Since I’m on a shared server and don’t have access to all of the configuration options, I’ll try the latter and see how it goes.

Thanks. I already have a plugin and it works fine. I was just wondering if it could be done without a plugin.

Great thanks. I will mark this resolved. I’ll leave my other post about the nonce error marked unresolved for now.

It’s possible that I was being automatically blacklisted for logging in too many times.

I’m asking a few friends to see if the site works for them.

Please try it. If you’re not in the US it should block you. If you are in the US it should work.

I whitelisted my IP address and now it seems to be working, although I still get the message “Sorry, your nonce did not verify” whenever I try to make changes.
