Scan Directories Selection

Description: Choose which directories are included in malware scanning.

How it works: scan_dirs/directories settings determine which paths are traversed during a scan for performance and relevance.

How to access / configure:

  1. WP Admin → AegisShield → Malware Scan.
  2. Select directories to scan.
  3. Save (if applicable) and run scan.

Recommended setting: Always include plugins and themes; include uploads on sites that allow uploads or have been compromised before.
