Hide false positives or accepted-risk findings so they no longer affect scores, top issues, or instant alerts. Suppressions live in WP Triage only — nothing changes on WordPress.
Use suppressions for findings you have already mitigated elsewhere, accepted as business risk, or confirmed as noise for that install. Do not use them as a substitute for patching — the goal is a cleaner priority list, not a quieter false calm.
| Location | Best for |
|---|---|
| Site triage view — On this site / On all sites under each issue | Reviewing one site at a time |
| Sites → Recurring issues | The same finding on multiple client installs |
| Settings → Suppressions | Reviewing or restoring suppressions |
Scores refresh shortly after you suppress or restore (background re-assessment).
On Sites (active tab), the Recurring issues panel lists findings on two or more sites. Use Suppress all once instead of triaging the same plugin on every install.
Click Restore on a suppressed issue in triage, or open Settings → Suppressions. The finding can affect scores and alerts again after re-assessment.
Suppressing a critical or known-exploited issue requires extra confirmation. Only do this when you deliberately accept the risk.
| Action | Scope | Plugin |
|---|---|---|
| Suppress an issue | One finding (per site or all sites) | Keeps syncing |
| Pause monitoring | Entire site — all scores and alerts stop | Keeps syncing; history kept |
