    Hi, In the table you have “Nickname” and “Name”.

    Can you tell me what should i use if i wanted to block that bot manually in htaccess.

    Does the bot go by the Nickname or the Name?

    Thanks

    Hi,

    Our plugin was made to avoid the users to touch their .htacess file.
    If you don’t have good skills in apache & .htacess and make mistake in edit your .htacess file, your site can stop to works (with 500 error).

    I suggest to you request support to your hosting company about edit your .htacess file to avoid problems.

    Cheers,

    Bill

    Hi,

    Unfortunately support to make changes in .htacess file is beyond scope of support of our plugin.
    Our plugins was developed to avoid ours users to worry with .htacess.
    Please, talk with your hosting about that.

    Cheers,
    Bill

    I am not asking for help with htaccess!

    In the bot table you have “nickname” and “name”

    Question is simple.

    What is the official bot name, “nickname” or “name”

    This is a question about your plugin.

    Yeah Great, you ask me to send you message via your website so you can send me insult in private and still not answer my question!

    Thanks!

    I will assume the bot “name” is the correct name to use. Not hard to test 50/50 chance.

    I will also assume the reason you didn’t answer my question is because you don’t want people blocking bots on their own using htaccess.

    But for anyone who wants to do this, you can see an updated list here and add your own bots to it as required:
