 * Hi,
 * Having a problem with genuine IPs/Visitors?
 * It seems WF is blocking them for reasons unknown to me?
 * Also, its showing them on the front end instructions on how how Admin can mod
   wordfence setup etc?
 * Why would it show this to users/visitors rather than just tell them ‘your blocked
   refer to site owner’?
 * No point adding a blocked users IP address if its still going to block everyone
   else? So how do I allow a user to view the site please?
 * Many Thanks
