    Hi there, hope all is good.

    I’m getting an error when trying to add Serpstat IPs to the Allowlist…

    “An error occurred while saving the configuration: Please make sure you separate your IP addresses with commas. The following allowlisted IP addresses are invalid:…”

    Screenshot – https://www.dropbox.com/s/ri17prpi0sb6of3/Screenshot%202021-06-14%20at%2017.40.34.png?dl=0

    I’ve tried the IPs on separate lines and comma-separated. Same error each time. I’ve confirmed with Serpstat the IPs are valid.

    Please can you help?

    Thanks.

    Hi @8persap, thanks for getting in touch.

    Could you possibly add the IP addresses here in a code block so I can try them myself on my configuration? What you have provided in the screenshot seems valid but the contents of the textbox might hold a clue as to why this error message appears, so it’d be good to try replicating myself.

    Thanks,

    Peter.

    Hi @8persap, sorry for the delay.

    There seem to have been hidden characters in the list of IPs provided that may be whitespaces, tabs or new line characters. Every time I copied the provided list in, I was also receiving the same error even after copying to Notepad and editing it manually.

    To solve, I added commas and pasted the list into https://www.browserling.com/tools/remove-all-whitespace and was then able to save. I will provide this list again below, but if the forum adds any formatting characters you may have to run it through the link again as I did.

    I was able to paste the contents of the above quote directly from the forum into Wordfence and it saved successfully.

    Thanks again,
