 * I’m having the same problem when using a CDN on my background images. When CDN
   is activated it pulls a string like this in my source code and image is broken:
 * background-image: url([https://myCDNdomain.com/&quot://mydomain.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/plane.jpg&quot](https://myCDNdomain.com/&quot://mydomain.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/plane.jpg&quot);)
 * When it works my source code is without my CDN: background-image: url(“[https://mydomain.com/wp-content/themes/rise/images/templates/plane.jpg&#8221](https://mydomain.com/wp-content/themes/rise/images/templates/plane.jpg&#8221);;)
 * Searching the web this seems to be a common problem, but not clear answer on 
   how to fix.

 * I found the function to add an email address. It was just moved around. The video
   showed it was in a different place. Another reason why updated videos can make
   a difference or a video that explains “at this time” or things may be moved around.
   But most can expect that to happen.
 * The only problem for me now is getting the slider and pop up to work on my landing
   pages with Thrive content builder. And also getting the height function to adjust.
   Only the width adjusts. See screen shot: [http://screencast.com/t/rZvICGaCv](http://screencast.com/t/rZvICGaCv)
 * Hopefully, someone can help me out here.
 * Cheers!

 * Awesome Shelby! Thanks for the quick reply. I really do hope it gets fixed. I’ve
   called just about every one I could including my hosting service, and my ISP.
   They all couldn’t help me. I’m just gonna hope that it resolves itself like you
   said… It’s already been about a week. Keeping my fingers crossed for this week.
   I hope you have been able to get your other questions answered. If I figure something
   out I will let you know. Take care =)

 * Hi Shelby… Did you ever get this issue fixed… I’m running into the same problem.

 * Hello. Thanks for the response. I do not have a CDN… Don’t know much about CDNs.
   hopefully I will soon if they are that much more helpful to my site.
 * So it sounds like I do not need any other security plugin. And that if I do use
   IQ country it will not conflict or cause any harm with your plugin unless I get
   the WP+ edition of Ninjafirewall.
 * Also Thank you for those security articles. I will be checking them out to learn
   more about protecting my site.
 * I also have used p3 profiler… Yes that is very helpful and it uses less resources
   than wordfence (the I was using before).
 * I am not sure what you were saying though about if P3 dose not show anything 
   wrong, then I would need to check my server or PHP configuration. Don’t you mean
   if P3 does show something wrong or extended resources used?
 * Thanks

 * Yes that helps very much.. thank you Tim… perhaps for my question in 3 that you
   recommend the option to distinguish between blocking from fronend and backend.
   For example. I may want to block all backend countries. All attempts basically
   except for my IP address. However, on the front end if I did that I would lock
   all my visitors from seening my site.
 * So, There would only be like 15-20 countries I would want to block from front
   end and everyone from backend …
 * Does that make sense. Currently WF cannot do that. Or is there a way? Anyway.
   thanks for all your help today.

 * Hi Tim thanks for responding to many requests today. Even from other people… 
   However you are not answering my questions. I know I can use country blocking.
   Let me try to be a bit more specific and then I will close or resolve this post.
 * 1st: Was I correct about the response codes?
 * 2nd: If a country is blocked (premium member) do I need to worry about blociking
   an individual IP address if that IP address is from that blocked country?
 * 3rd: Is there currently a way to block all backend users and only certain front
   end users… like IQ country (plugin) does? The current set up is you are unable
   to destinguish between both back end and front end.
 * 4th: I added this question: Can I now use IQ country (plugin) with Wordfence 
   without any conflicts?

 * Oh your talking about the service code I see right after the http.
 * Like something like thess:
    “GET /wp-login.php?action=register HTTP/1.1” 503 
   2333 “POST /wp-login.php HTTP/1.1” 503 2333 /wp-login.php HTTP/1.0″ 200 2987 “-”“-“
 * So the first example returns a 503 which means it was successfully blocked right?
   and the 200 means I need to go in and block their IP address right?
 * What if I decide to block their country. Then I don’t need to worry about blocking
   an individual IP correct? I think I sill would have to add their individual IP
   because on the country settings I’m only blocking backend access. I need to add
   their individual ID to block front end access as well correct? Or Does WF even
   block front end Access?
 * And I know this post was originally for CPU spikes. I think I was able to fix
   that and I don’t believe WF was at fault.
 * But my last question is WF still allows for our own servers to use resources 
   even when 404 or 503s are returned correct?

 * Also…
 * It looks as if some Countries I’ve blocked are still managing to access my site.
   I’m not sure but perhaps you can tell me why I’m seeing various “GET strings 
   from IP addresses in countries that I have blocked (login form and rest of site)
   in my raw access files. Thank you.
 * Such as…
    “GET / HTTP/1.1” “GET / webmanage “GET / Admin
