MainWP Wordfence Extension

Description

The Wordfence Extension centralizes monitoring of the Wordfence security plugin across all WordPress sites connected to MainWP, displaying a single dashboard with threat counts, scan status, and critical alerts for each child site. Integrated with MainWP, it synchronizes Wordfence settings across child sites, allows you to run remote scans, and lets you view results without logging in individually to each installation managed through the central dashboard.

Key Features

• Centralized security dashboard
  Displays the Wordfence status of all child sites on a single MainWP screen.
• Scheduled remote scanning
  Runs malware scans on connected sites without accessing each site’s individual admin area.
• Settings synchronization
  Replicates Wordfence rules, options, and settings across multiple installations at once.
• Consolidated threat overview
  Lists vulnerabilities, infected files, and blocked login attempts for each child site.
• Notification management
  Receives critical Wordfence alerts directly in the central MainWP dashboard.

Benefits of Wordfence Extension

• Faster incident response
  Identifies compromised sites immediately, without having to review each admin area separately.
• Standardized security policy
  Ensures that all child sites use the same Wordfence rules and settings.
• Operational time savings
  Drastically reduces the time spent checking security across portfolios with dozens of sites.
• Unified visibility
  Brings the entire portfolio’s security posture together in a consolidated report.

Who Is It For?

• Agencies that manage multiple client WordPress sites and need to standardize security.
• Freelancers and maintenance consultants responsible for portfolios with Wordfence installed.
• Internal IT teams that manage networks of corporate sites through the MainWP dashboard.

Designed for agencies, maintenance providers, and IT teams that already use MainWP as their central dashboard, the extension eliminates the need to open each wp-admin to check Wordfence reports. By consolidating scans, alerts, and settings in one place, it turns security management into a single workflow that remains practical even for portfolios with dozens or hundreds of monitored sites.
