There does not seem to be a viable alternative apart from as you mentioned turning off global protections which is not ideal or keep adding IP address as ignore rule.There is however an extensive user guide that's worth studying because it explains in detail how to get to grips with it. The only way I can see the issue being resolved is if a rule is added on plugin side for the Breakdance Builder plugin with a wildcard for any URL that contains the above query parameter. The developer has now added this to all Ajax request URL’s made by the builder: The problem is you would need to do this for every page on your website as it would trigger again when you tried to load in a different page. You can indeed whitelist the action with something like this:

The problem is the builder loads in pages via ajax and in those pages is code that Wordfence blocks i.e SVG code. Hi, The issue is not resolved and still exists. This reply was modified 4 months, 3 weeks ago by Jeusu.

It began as a fork of the IPCop project, but has since been rewritten based on Linux From Scratch. Though I imagine having other tags included in that regex would trigger it too. IPFire is a Linux-based stateful firewall distro that’s built on top of Netfilter. If I remove the SVG part there in the regex it no longer happens. It is this rule that is blocking it in /wp-content/wflogs/rules.php line 32 $this->variables = new wfWAFRuleVariable($this, 'xssRegex', '/(?: The same thing happens when I insert any type of icon based block in the builder and set a custom icon. It immediately triggers the block as it tries to render the SVG. Sorry, your browser does not support inline SVG.

So if I insert a new code block using the builder and then paste a simple SVG code such as this: I have been doing some further testing and it seems this is not specific to the code blocks in the builder but seems to be down to SVG code. Hi, yes the same happens, as learning mode will only add in the pages you have tried to edit so unless you tried to edit every single page / template you will still be blocked on any page not used during learning mode. This topic was modified 4 months, 3 weeks ago by Jeusu. The issue is that gets overwritten on rules update. The only solutions I have found is either keep adding your IP address as it changes in the backend or appending this to the bottom of the file in /wflogs/rules.php The problem is it needs to work for all the URL’s and there seems to be no way to add a wildcard to make this work. I have tried adding the param to firewall allowlist which does work for the particular URL: If you use any code blocks when building the templates then Wordfence blocks those code blocks from loading when you try and add a new page. The biggest advantage of this software is that you can create a. Firewall Builder is a GUI firewall management application for iptables, PF, Cisco ASA/PIX/FWSM, Cisco router ACL and more.
