Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Checkout Origin Guard

Google, Bing, and Apple search crawlers are allowed after cached reverse and forward DNS verification. Configured AI and uptime User-Agent allowances apply to GET and HEAD traffic. Known exploit probes are checked before allowances. Other crawler identities remain subject to scoring.

Your logged-in administrator sessions are never blocked by Bot Block. If you manually block your own address, you can unblock it from the plugin dashboard with one click.

No. Checkout Origin Guard complements existing firewall or security plugins. It focuses specifically on WooCommerce checkout behavior and identity quality, rather than broad HTTP filtering.

No. Checkout Origin Guard does not interfere with your payment gateway’s authorization or capture logic. The optional AVS “U” feature runs after the gateway has responded and only: Adds order notes Adjusts a risk-score meta field Optionally changes the WooCommerce order status to “on-hold” for manual review Your gateway interaction and funds flow remain unchanged.

AVS (Address Verification Service) compares billing address details against card-issuer records. The code “U” usually means: Address not checked, or Service unavailable, or Acquirer had no response On its own, AVS U does not prove fraud, but combined with other signals (suspicious company name, disposable email, rapid sequence from one IP) it can be a useful reason to slow down and review the order.

Yes. The AVS settings include an optional Gateway Meta Keys list. If you know the exact meta keys your gateway uses to store AVS results, you can enter them for more precise scanning. If you leave the field blank, Checkout Origin Guard will scan all order meta values for common AVS U patterns, including PayPal-style messages such as: AVS: U: Unavailable / Address not checked, or acquirer had no response. Service not available.

Yes. All log data can be exported to CSV from the plugin dashboard for review, forensics, or integration with external tools.

Logs are stored in a dedicated database table inside your existing WordPress database. They contain timestamps, IP addresses, user agents, paths, HTTP methods, and a decision flag. No external services are used; all data remains on your server. You can clear or truncate this table using your preferred database tools if you want to reset history.
