What is the Fully Automatic Black List system?

The automated black list system (engine) will block the IP addresses of naughty visitors after a specified number of offenses. It is best described in the blog release here.

After reading the above blog article, some important points to note are:

  • It is enabled by default when you install, activate, upgrade the plugin
  • It is available from v4.10+ onwards
  • You can turn it off by setting Offense Limit to 0

Note: Bots & IPs Zone also gives you the ability to analyse and manage blacklisted and whitelisted IP addresses.
