Hi John, Noticed a few points from a plugin check missing_direct_file_access_protectionPHP file should prevent direct access. WordPress.Security.NonceVerification.RecommendedProcessing form data without nonce verification. Can you share whether you’re hoping to ensure these are tied up? I think we might need to keep WPC on our production site, and these notices and warnings/errors cause a little concern. Quick question: Is we pause or delete a scheduled cron with your plugin installed, what happens to it if we deactivate or delete WPCr ? Do they remain or revert? Thanks in advanced. Plugin deactivation is covered here: https://wp-crontrol.com/docs/deactivation/ The reports about direct file access and missing nonces appear to be false positives. WP Crontrol has a pretty strict set of security and code scanning configuration, but I’ll double check to be sure.
