    1. There is an IP adress which is in the blocked list. But the robot is coming back after the block is time-out. The IP is not permantly blocked, also after 20 times blocked

    2. The posibility to permanent block an IP is missing (just can delete or unblock an IP in the blocvked list)

    Blacklist Manager
    —————————-

    3. I put an IP to the blacklist but the IP is comming back and back and back and will not be blocked. I realised this becoause the IP is trying again and again an user which bans the IP directly and sent me a notification mail. And yes, this is .htaccess blocking and AIOWPS ads this to the .htacces

    Hi,

    Thank you for your request. The plugin developers will investigate further your request.

    Do you have one of the following features enabled? These features are located in WP Security -> Firewall -> Basic Firewall Rules. If you don’t and you know you don’t use this function in your site, you should enable one of these features.

    Completely Block Access To XMLRPC:
    Disable Pinback Functionality From XMLRPC

    Kind regards
