    Hi There,

    Following on a previous thread on the same subject, it seems that BBQ Firewall makes the “dynamic field” gutenberg block from jet engine (crocoblock) unusable (showing error). I’m wondering if there would be any easy stuff to do to fix it definitvely?

    Thanks
    Anthony

    Hi Anthony,

    Not sure which “previous thread”, but in general whenever there is a false positive all we need is the URL that is getting blocked (but shouldn’t be). That will enable us to investigate, test and provide a solution asap.

    Hi Jeff,

    It occurs in the gutenberg block editor (dynamic fields block cannot be used, it shows error). Here’s the website:

    https://pirrha-oceancar1.pf21.wpserveur.net/

    Let me know if you need something,

    That URL is not blocked by BBQ. Basically to resolve any false positive, it is necessary to know which URLs are involved. Sometimes getting the URL is obvious, like if the false positive happens at for example:

    https://example.com/?eval(-for-example

    But other times, the false positive is more difficult to determine, like when a script uses Ajax or the REST API to make calls “beneath the hood”. In such cases, you can use the code inspector in your browser to dig and get the actual URL that is getting blocked.

    I hope this makes sense, let me know if I can elaborate further.

    Hey just to follow up, a user sent in a solution for the reported issue with JetEngine’s Gutenberg blocks. Here it is:

    ===

    We found the issues for the Jetengine & JetSmartFilters widgets in Gutenberg editor, when BBQ Firewall is activated.

    It was the ('\.\.\.') filter in $request_uri_array and the bbq_long_requests filter, that blocked the Jetengine and the most JetSmartFilters widgets in Gutenberg editor.

    We added the ('\.\.\.') filter to the BBQ Whitelist plugin and deactivated the bbq_long_requests in the BBQ Customize plugin. After that run everything without any conflict.

    ===

    I hope it helps. Let me know if any further questions, glad to help anytime.

    Hi Jeff,

    I’m still getting the errors when I try to use dynamic blocks in gutenberg editor. Not sure if I needed to do something before trying to use these blocks. We can’t do much with the free version of BBQ firewall?? Maybe through a future update that you would implement soon?

    Thanks
    Anthony

    Hmm.. not sure.

    Did you add the ('\.\.\.') pattern via the whitelist plugin?

    And then also disable the long requests filter using the customize plugin?
