 * I was just working with another site, this time a pretty standard site (not woocommerce)
   with PODS installed, and noticed it was also loading pages slowly even though
   it’s on a fast and capable server and there’s almost no traffic. I changed PODS
   performance settings as suggested above and it got faster. This leads me to wonder
   what the downsides of this change might be. In other words, should I always turn
   off those settings? Here is a CPU utilization chart to illustrate. The first 
   set of spikes is 10 page refreshes (while logged in to avoid cache usage) after
   turning the performance settings off as recommended above, and the second much
   larger set of spikes is 10 page refreshes of the same page after turning those
   options back on.

 * Thanks, [@saurabhdhariwal](https://wordpress.org/support/users/saurabhdhariwal/)!
 * This is exactly what I was looking for. My logo is the same as the site title
   and it looked like I was repeating myself on the site, so I tried just deleting
   the site title, but that had other negative side effects. This was great. Thanks!

 * Thanks a lot for that. It was a different theme I was using and the line number
   was different but it still worked perfectly. Crazy how this happens. Thanks for
   posting this. It helped a lot, as I didn’t need to restore from backup.

 * Hi! I’m wondering if, if I approve a request (thumbs-up icon), does the user 
   receive a notification that it was done? I hope so, because I have not emailed
   these blocked users after approving their request.
 * Thanks

 * Updating the theme to the latest version seems to have fixed this but still —
   how did that CSS change in the first place?

 * I’m having the same problem. I never changed the css file but also have the “
   visibility:hidden” showing when I inspect. What caused this to change?

 * Hi Keith,
 * I just found this plugin and it looks like it’s gonna be great. Thanks for writing
   and sharing it.
 * I wanted to chime in here as I had the same concern. Upon re-reading the notes,
   it does say that it will display the captcha “if a real user is blocked”. However,
   as a suggestion, maybe this could be made a bit clearer in the admin page. The
   section heading for the re-captcha does not say “second chance”, but some of 
   the other sections do. I think this is perhaps what led to my confusion. Also,
   the instructions say that we need to enable it on the challenge & deny menu to
   the left, even though that menu item leads to the same page. Would it make sense
   to change that to read something like, “If the recaptcha form looks good you 
   need to make sure ‘Google ReCaptcha’ is enabled in the ‘Second Chance Captcha
   Challenge’ section above.”?
 * Thanks again, and I hope this doesn’t sound like complaining. I’m just trying
   to help out.

 * Hi, I’ve spoken with Sucuri sales and it was confirmed that this plugin is not
   related to their firewall or hack cleanup service.

 * If I subscribe to Sucuri, or pay for their service, will there be a different
   plugin that replaces this one?

 * I still can’t seem to keep them stored for more than a day or so. I just checked
   and it’s empty again. I wonder if it could be related to some quirk of my host(
   pagely)? Would the paid version of Sucuri provide something that might work better?
   Thanks

 * Thanks.
 * I have been adding the IPs to the Trust IP panel, and they stick for a while 
   even if I refresh the page, but some time later they are gone. I’m not sure why.
   I have three IPs that are quite different from one another so I didn’t think 
   I needed to use CIDR. I just add the three IPs, they seem to stick, and then 
   they’re gone when I go back later (List is empty).

 * Thanks a lot for the quick answer!
 * This does not affect any logins by non-admin users, is that correct? I am wondering
   why there were so many “active” users showing on the real-time view of google
   analytics, as we have a total of two admin users only one of which was using 
   the system (me). I saw Google analytics reporting up to 5 of these.
 * Thanks
