    Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.

    You got blocked. Look in the database table for the plugin and find your IP. The plugin returns the error code you select when someone is blocked. The default error code is 503.

    You should Whitelist your IP address before enabling the blocking feature to prevent yourself from getting blocked again.

    Here’s the documentation for the plugin.

    Super, added my IP to Whitelist and it seems to be working. Can I ask…How do you know if it’s actually working against scrapers?

    There’s an activity and blocked list that will show you when bad activity is detected and when visitors are blocked.

    Make sure you’re adding the entire IP block for your IP if you are on an isp that changes your IP address from time to time. You can get the IP block by clicking your IP address in the Whitelist.

    Not sure what you mean about the range by clicking the IP in the whitelist. I will contact the ISP to find out.

    Go look at the Whitelist and click on your IP address. It takes you to a website that lists the starting and ending IP address for your isp. Then edit the entry for your IP address and enter those for the start and end.
