    Hi,

    Is there a way to automatically add to the list of permenantly blocked IP addresses those IPs which are listed as having been blocked in the Wordfence activity summary report?

    Rather than having to go through and laboriously add all of them one by one manually, it would be incredibly useful to be able to click a button and add the whole lot to the list is one go.

  • Hello ac1643,
    It’s on our feature request list (Reference number: FB707) but I can’t tell you when it will be implemented. However, if you go to “Options”/”Login Security Options” you can increase the amount of time an IP is blocked when they break a rule under “Amount of time a user is locked out”. If you set your summaries to send at a frequency similar to the time a user is blocked when breaking a rule you only have to go through the list under “Blocked IPs” and click “[make permanent]” to keep them permanently blocked.

    Thanks for your quick response, I’ll try this.
