Support » Plugin: IP2Location Country Blocker » Tested my site though foreign vpn, didn’t block it

  • Resolved jwiere03

    (@jwiere03)


    I have enabled front end blocking and set the site to

    “Block all countries except countries listed below.”
    Canada, Mexico, United States, United States Minor Outlying Islands

    But when I visit the site using foreign vpns I can still view it.

    I had the “IP2Proxy Lookup Mode” set to “Binary Database” and it blocked everyone, even in the countries that aren’t supposed to be blocked. If I turn that options off (“IP2Location Lookup Mode” set to “Binary Database”) then it seems to block no one.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi,

    The blocking is working.

    Please note that the blocking will not works if you are accessing the page as administrator.

    I was not logged in when I tested the page. I have also noticed that it appears we get visitors and form submissions from ip addresses in countries that are supposed to be blocked.

    Can you try to enable the “Debug Log” from the plugin page. Then collect some data and send us the debug.log which is generated in your plugin directory.
