In reply to: [iQ Block Country] Completely NON working extension!Hi,
No, not the resolving part. But that might also be a typo or an extra space or something.
But if you use caching you will cripple any geo blocking you want to do as the most popular (or all if you pre populate your cache) pages will be served from cache.

In reply to: [iQ Block Country] Completely NON working extension!46.148.112.131 is resolving the the Ukraine on my database so this must be a local issue.
I’d be happy to look into this issue with you. Do you perhaps use a caching plugin?

In reply to: [iQ Block Country] gstatic.comUnless you have something installed where gstatic.com tries to access your website I don’t believe this issue has something to do with the plugin but perhaps gstatic.com was unavailable or had issues at that moment

In reply to: [iQ Block Country] Allow ONLY whitelisted IP’s to attempt login…Hi,
Yes you can block all countries and whitelist your own IP address. Ofcourse this is only useful if you have a static IP address.
Whitelist always has precedence over blacklisting. You could even blacklist your own IP address but if it is on the whitelist you will get in.

What are Comcast’s Dynamic IP Ranges?

2001:558:6000::/36This is however a rather extensive list. I am not sure how xfinity works but usually ip ranges are dedicated to certain regions or cities even so you might be able to narrow it down if you get the IP addresses from the people who need access.

In reply to: [iQ Block Country] redis cache support?Hi,
Redis cache is not a standard caching like Hyper Cache or WP Super Cache but a memory caching solution.
I have not tested Redis (or memcached). I would reckon it might work better than previous stated caching solutions but I really have no experience with it just yet.
Multisite has not been tested by me for a while either. Previously it worked but no guarantees for recent versions.

In reply to: [iQ Block Country] Allow user to enter after form submission?Hi,
No unfortunately there is no way to allow a visitor by any way (either form, captcha or other) once they are blocked.
It is on the wishlist but it would probably take a lot of time to research and add

In reply to: [iQ Block Country] Allow ONLY whitelisted IP’s to attempt login…Hi,
Yes you could totally lock out every country and only work with whitelisted IP address.
If you know the IP ranges of Xfinity you can allow complete ranges (that is if you’re comfortable with that)
Hi @uzzalth ,
Thanks for the report I will check and adjust

In reply to: [iQ Block Country] Won’t block site Home PageAs said before, this is because you use caching.
If you use caching this has an effect on the blocking of pages.
Stop using caching if you want to block your content from countries or use caching but then you’ll have to accept that often visitors from blocked countries get to see the page from cache.
Thank you for your review.
If you block backend then you of course block the backend and thus the ability to login. Especially if you have dynamic IP addresses.

In reply to: [iQ Block Country] IQ Block Country not blockingPerhaps this solves your issue?
I have moved my WordPress site to another host. Now iQ Block Country cannot find the GeoIP databases anymore
Somewhere in your WordPress database there is a wp_options table. In the wp_options table is an option_name called ‘upload_path’.
There probably is an (old) path set as option_value. If you know your way around MySQL (via PHPMyAdmin for instance) you can empty the option_value.
This should fix your problem.Please note that your wp_options table may be called differently depending on your installation choices.

In reply to: [iQ Block Country] Blocked myself outUsually it is a caching plugin or other caching solution that does not play by the rules.
Although I’ve not seen a plugin yet that also caches the backend.
I will check Swift out and add it to the non compatible plugins
