    Hi,

    Thank you for the plugin, works well

    My query is with regard to ‘Visits Log‘ of which, I have tons – 7,840 entries -listed as being ‘Denied’?

    Thing is, the urls blocked are ‘real posts’ so whay are they blocked?

    Also, As there are so many, how do I ‘unblock them as there is no ‘select all’ and unblock function?

    Does this also mean that anyone wishing to view the post will equally be blocked and someone or a bot is deliberately trying to stop views?

    Hope this made sense.

    Many Thanks

    Hi Rik,

    You are welcome. Yes, you had 7,840 bots attacking your website.

    The Log Blocked Visitors Log is a listing of blocked visitors. They are usually bots. In the report, you can find the reason why the visitor was blocked.

    On the plugin’s dashboard page, you will also find charts with a summary of the data.Typically, these are unwanted visitors, meaning bots. An Internet bot, also known as a web robot, robot or simply bot, is a software application that runs automated tasks (scripts) over the Internet. Bad bots consume bandwidth, slow down your server, steal your content and look for vulnerability to compromise your server.

    Normal users are not being blocked.
