 * I’m attempting to back up the settings from one wordpress site and import on 
   another. Both have the most update version of the plugin and WP version. I’ve
   tried several times and on import, I get “invalid file.” The file is iqblockcountry.
   ini.
 * It would save me a ton of time duplicating the same settings if I can just import
   the settings file to each of my sites.

 * Hi Dave,
 * Sorry for the delay.
 * You need to upload the zip file as you exported it else it won’t work. If you
   upload only the iqblockcountry.ini file it will not work.
