 * version 1.8.24
 * In Settings :: General Settings :: Log Exporter, I add valid path for the log
   file. Nothing changes. The setting remains disabled, there is no record of any
   problem to prevent its enablement.
 * What is the next step?

 * Never mind. Operator error.
 * I just discovered the reason: A “sucuri.log” file already existed in the target
   directory. (Don’t ask.) After erasing the file and adding the path again, the
   settings became enabled.
