    It’s probably not because it’s from facebook – there’s something in the URL.

    Experiment with your Firewall blocking rules (under Firewall -> Blocking Rules) and turn on/off rules until you find the one. Alternatively you could use the Audit Trail to see what’s being blocked.

    Hi, it says:

    Page parameter failed firewall check. The offending parameter was “_atshc” with a value of “{“http://fitnessozone.com/”:3}”. Firewall Trigger: Aggressive Rules. Firewall Block Response: Visitor connection was killed with wp_die() and a message.

    Okay, to immediately get this working again, turn off the Aggressive rules option in the Firewall section.

    Thanks Paul.

    How significant is turning off or turning on the Aggressive rules option in the Firewall section?

    It’s just a set of rules which aren’t applicable to your use-case. #1 important thing on a site is your usage and what you need. If a particular function, or rule isn’t suitable or compatible, just turn it off and use any other options you need.

    You could also white list the “_atshc” parameter (see the FAQ)

    Thanks Paul.

    Right now, I am feeling this plugin better than other similar top-listed plugins at WordPress repository.

    Great to hear that! 🙂 Please do spread the word about the plugin wherever you can then… especially where you see other people discussing security plugins.

    Thanks!

    And if you could leave us a review also, that’d be great.
