 * Hi,
    i have the gravityscan badge on my site and when the caching kicks in i 
   get errors from gravityscan that the badge couldn’t be found. When i purge cache
   everything seems ok for a minute. This is the mail i get: We were unable to find
   the Gravityscan badge on the homepage of mojzastopnik.si. In order to receive
   free monitoring, please ensure the badge is visible.
 * Can you help to exclude this badge from caching?
    Thanks.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fgravityscan-problem%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * I have been using Gravityscan on my website. It was suggested by another plugin
   that I was using, Wordfence. A few months ago I received an email from Gravityscan
   announcing me that they closed their operation and they won’t be offering any
   more scans. As such, they told me to remove their badge, which I did.
 * About a week or so ago I started having issues with my hosting provider. Yesterday
   they ended up by disabling my website because “it was causing performance issues
   on the server.” I asked a friend who has some base knowledge about WordPress 
   to look at my website. She told me that one of the reasons for these issues was
   that my website receives **thousands of thousands** of scans per day from Gravityscan.
   How is that possible, since they announced me that they closed their business?
   When I looked at their website I discovered that my account is still active, 
   but there is no way I can close it. I think you should try to get rid of Gravityscan
   if you can. I tried contacting them, but nobody to my email yet. I am not sure
   if they are not a scam. I’ll try contacting Wordfence, because they were the 
   ones recommending Gravityscan.
