6G blacklist

Hi,

Does the 6G blacklist work?

Yes

If so, you should update your old text below:
“Enable the famous ”5G Blacklist” Firewall rules courtesy of Perishable Press”.

I can’t find this text myself. Can you let us know where in the plugin is the text in question.

Thank you

The text is from your description here:
https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/all-in-one-wp-security-and-firewall/

Under FIREWALL FUNCTIONALITY

Thank you for sharing more information. I see what you mean.

Regards

In the core plugin, the text is correct. I think a translation file is outdated which is why you are seeing that in your install.

No, no no!
Please read my text again ?? You just have to read under your own tab “DESCRIPTION”, here at www.ads-software.com, not in the plugin. I guess you wrote that text, paste it below:
