Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Moatline Malware Scanner

No. The free plugin never deletes or changes files on its own. Scans only report findings. The database cleaner runs only when you click "Clean database".

You can review it, dismiss it, or exclude the path in Settings. Files that belong to WordPress.org plugins can be fixed by reinstalling that plugin. The Pro add-on adds one-click removal and restore.

Use one of your backup codes. If you don't have them, another administrator can reset your two-factor login from your user profile. As a last resort, add define( 'NNMS_DISABLE_2FA', true ); to wp-config.php, log in, and remove the line again.

All XML-RPC options are off by default. If you use Jetpack, choose Jetpack-safe mode: Jetpack keeps working while password logins and multicall stay blocked. The WordPress mobile app can sign in with an application password.

Yes. Moatline Malware Scanner is a scanner and hardening tool, not a firewall, so it runs alongside Wordfence, Sucuri, Solid Security, All-In-One Security and Jetpack. Your firewall blocks attacks; Moatline finds what got through and how it keeps coming back. Run one malware scan at a time if your hosting has limited resources.

Rename the wp-content/plugins/moatline-malware-scanner folder over FTP or your host's file manager. This disables the plugin and restores the normal login page.

Yes. Everything works on Nginx. For blocking PHP in uploads, the plugin shows the Nginx rule to add to your server configuration, because Nginx doesn't read .htaccess files.
