NinjaFirewall (WP and WP+ Edition) v3.4.3 introduces two new constants to help you debug potential PHP session issues such as whitelisted users being blocked by the firewall: NFW_SESSION_DEBUG_USER and NFW_SESSION_DEBUG_CAPS.
Either constant can be writtent to the WordPress “wp-config.php” script or the “.htninja” configuration file.
When enabled, selected users could see their NinjaFirewall status in the WordPress dashboard admin bar:
