RankMath 404 Monitor and security related Plugins

    Hi,

    we use iThemes Security Plugin to watch the 404 log and create bans based on IPs triggering those 404s. When activating the 404 monitor in RM, it seems to me that the security plugin does not function anymore.It seems like RM “consumes” the errors before they reach the security plugin.

    Any information on this? Ways to have both functions available?

    Thanks, best
    Jochen

  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.

    I am afraid that running both of these features at the same time would only cause conflicts. I can suggest that you head over to Rank Math > Dashboard and disable the 404 monitor module.

    Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

    Mhmm. That’s not what I wanted to hear 😉

    Is there a way to file a feature request for RM, please?

    Thanks, regards
    Jochen

    Hi Jochen,

    Thanks for the follow up.

    No worries, I have passed this on to our developers and hopefully this will be added to our future development roadmap.

    Please let us know if we can offer additional assistance. Thank you.

    Hi Jochen,

    I am sorry but this is expected when you use two plugins for the same thing. Since you already have a solution in place to take care of 404s, you can disable Rank Math’s 404 Module like my colleague suggested.

    In the meantime, we will also check if there is room for improvement in our 404 monitor.

    Thank you.
