Hello, I am really am searching the forum first, but could not find an answer to this.
I was able to successfully exclude a file on which I had received an alert for Hidden Plugin Folders|Files. I got the green message that it had been excluded. https://app.screencast.com/is8gQors9h8Lk
I continued to get alerts every hour.
Then I reset Alerts at the top of the Display & Alerts Options Page. All the messages said Nothing to be reset except: Success! The GDPR Compliance Notice is reset. But the Hidden Folder Alert continued to be displayed and alerts sent to me.
Thank you again for your ever appreciated assistance!
Then I clicked reset in database under Quarantine page, not knowing what else to do.
- I see nowhere to modify the frequency of these alerts, since yesterday, I have gotten an alert about every hour. I do not want to disable the Alert as it is very useful, but once a day seems enough alerting.
- How do I reset this so I will not continue to get alerts?
I know that I can disable Auto Restore, login to the server, delete the folder then delete wp-content Backups and Backup again, but that is so much more work, than pasting an exclude text line, so I would like to know if this maybe a plugin incompatibility or some strange behavior, or something I just did not do correctly. Other sites that I have excluded are not sending me messages btw.
Thank you!!
