 * Hi,
 * I am using Squirrly SEO and it uses a crawler to access my site.
    ” [http://crawler.squirrly.co/v2/crawl?url=https://www.mindyourownbusiness.eu/&#8221](http://crawler.squirrly.co/v2/crawl?url=https://www.mindyourownbusiness.eu/&#8221);
 * This gives an empty result because of some blocking.
    I can not find a way to
   fix this? What setting do I need to alter in iThemes security plugin?
 * Kind regards
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fcrawler-access-denied%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Het eerste wat in gedachte komt is de **Default Blacklist** instelling in de **
   Banned Users** module. Indien ingeschakeld probeer dan eerst eens deze instelling
   uit te zetten.
 * Overigens is het ten zeerste aanbevolen om uw geinstalleerde iTSec Pro plugin(
   6.2.3 – 2019-11-14) te updaten naar de laatste versie (op dit moment 6.5.5 – 
   2020-04-20).
 * Dit kan overigens alleen als uw WordPress versie 5.2 of hoger is en de gebruikte
   PHP versie 5.6 of hoger. Als ik mij niet vergis wordt in uw geval aan beide voorwaarden
   voldaan 😉
