"Wordfence has been removed from the default deployments." WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT???? Wordfence is one of the most popular wordpress plugins at 4+ MILLION installations. Can you guys address this like professionals? How would removing it from the base install solve permissions problems and ssh access problems? Did you test it outside of the base install and confirm that it works or are you too lazy to do that?

this is definitely not completed. Still having issues it's been many months now...

That's still an issue. For weeks I've been getting errors in the error log about Wordfence not being able to write to the wflogs folder, I've deleted the plugin, then reinstalled it, and issues disappeared. But I now am not able to update Wordfence, again permission issues due to different file ownership:
"An error occurred while updating Wordfence Security: The update cannot be installed because we will be unable to copy some files. This is usually due to inconsistent file permissions. "

I think this is still an issue.

So.. let's nevermind security plugins? This is not completed.
Wordfence, or a paying Cloudways customer, should be able to set permissions to "/wp-content/wplogs" to enable Wordfence to do it's work.

This is not possible, not even through SSH. Please fix.

Thank you

Wordfence has been removed from the default deployments. Let us know if issues persist when deploying outside of the base install.
