    Hello! Please tell me how to do it?

    You have a private IP : 127.0.0.1
    If your site is behind a reverse proxy or a load balancer, ensure that you have setup your HTTP server or PHP to forward the correct visitor IP, otherwise use the NinjaFirewall .htninja configuration file.

    I use the proxy to Varnish

    Hi,

    As indicated, you can create a ‘.htninja’ file and set it up to forward the correct IP.
    If the user real IP is stored in the ‘HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR’ header, then add this code to the .htninja file:

    <?php
/*
 +=============================================================+
 | NinjaFirewall optional configuration file                   |
 |                                                             |
 | See: https://ninjafirewall.com/wordpress/htninja/            |
 +=============================================================+
*/

if ( isset($_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR']) ) {
   $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"] = $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'];
}
