From my perspective, if there were a way to disable anyone from using the login of 'admin' or 'administrator' when registering, that would be awesome. Good news hehafner. Under the Login Security...

Good news hehafner. Under the Login Security Options you'll find: Prevent users registering 'admin' username if it doesn't exist. What would nice if that included all variations of that term and also...

Hi Guys, I have been mildly entertained by today's earlier discussion/debate. I don't think any of us disagree that WordFence can do what it has been programmed to, but that some of us want a little...

@hehafner, We are all guilty at one time or another of losing track of a thread. As much as I like Wordfence (hey, I have purchased licenses) there are lingering issues. As I eluded to earlier there is...

@Cam, Good summary of the banter. Of all the solutions for blocking bad login names your solution is the most eloquent solution. Thanks for sharing.

@sgpark & @Cam Thank you for the suggestion of Restrict Usernames. I will check it out for sure. @Storyman I've gotten pretty savvy of going into the DB and clearing tables. I agree, the wfHits...

@hehafner & others, Whole hardly agree with plugin bloat--either using an additional plugin or modifying an existing one. It's interesting to see the plugins that some of the hackers' bots search...

I have had the Wordfence plugin installed for a good 6 weeks and in the past 3 weeks I have had the same issue. Deactivating all my plugins and re-activating one at time has shown that the Wordfence...

Thanks @Storyman for the compliment on my simple script/plugin. It is unlikely to be a plugin that would slow down a site any noticeable amount because it is so small and targeted. I agree with...

Flarewall sends banned IP addresses triggered in CSF to the block list at CloudFlare. It's worth a look.

If we enable the falcon engine, can we still enable the w3tc cache as well? https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordfence/

No. In fact if you try to enable it you'll get a warning that you can't enable falcon with any other caching plugin enabled. You shouldn't be using multiple caching plugins because they'll probably...

The Falcon Engine sounds promising. Great work. I enabled it but had issues with WPTouch I use for mobile devices. WPTouch was all over the place. With other caches I've used on other sites with...
