Note: This feature, the on-demand scan, requires a paid Virusdie plan.
By default, Virusdie will scan your sites automatically once per week on the free plan. If any problem is found, you will get a notification from the Virusdie service.
If you wish to scan sites more frequently or on demand, an upgrade to a paid Virusdie plan is required.
To request the Scan process manually,
- Login to your MainWP Dashboard
- Go to the MainWP > Extensions > Virusdie page
- Locate the site that you want to scan
- Click the Scan button
