Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about BlockBots – Anti-Bot, Stop Fake Traffic, Prevent Click Fraud & Scraping

No. By default, logged-in users are skipped entirely. Local filtering works silently in the background. Cloud verification is designed to be seamless for genuine human visitors.

Google, Bing, Facebook, Twitter, and other major platform crawlers are allowed by default and will never be blocked. You can add additional user agents to the allowed list from the Local Protection tab.

No. All local protection features work without a cloud account or API key. A cloud account is only required to enable cloud-based bot detection and the advanced features managed in the BlockBots cloud account panel.

The API key authenticates your WordPress site with the BlockBots cloud service. It is not a plugin license key — it identifies your site to the cloud service so that bot detection results and traffic analytics are associated with your account.

No. The two versions cannot be active simultaneously. If the separate Pro plugin is active, this plugin will be automatically deactivated.

Yes. Blockbots includes compatibility handling for WP Fastest Cache and similar caching plugins to ensure bot checks are not bypassed by cached responses.
