Wordfence 3rd party php script issue

    Love your plugin. I have the paid version on some of our client sites, and free version on others.

    Recently ran into a very strange issue that I need some guidance on. One of our client sites has a separate 3rd party php script installed (not a WP plugin), and apparently wordfence isn’t liking it, so its blocking the site owner from accessing their own admin tools for the script.

    To give you a better idea for reference on the URLs:
    http://www.somesite.com/ is where WP is installed.
    http://www.somesite.com/otherscript/admin/ is where the other script and admin tools for it are installed.

    So when accessing the second URL, he is getting a WF 503 “Your access to this site has been limited” for this.

    Nice that WF will help security even outside of WP, but not in this case. I know the user.ini file WF creates is related to this, but unclear how to resolve this issue. Please advise.
