Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about IPScanner – Block Bots, VPNs & Proxies

No. Visitors never solve a puzzle. Blocked visitors get an error message or a short 403 page.

No. Verified search engines and AI crawlers always pass.

Visitors are let in. The plugin waits at most 1.5 seconds, then pauses checks for 30 seconds. I locked myself out. Administrators are let through while "Always allow administrators" is on. You can also add your IP to Always allow, or rename the plugin folder. My site is behind Cloudflare or a proxy. Choose Cloudflare or X-Forwarded-For under Visitor IP. Proxy headers are only read from trusted proxy addresses.

Logins, forms and checkout are never cached, so they are always checked. Pages served from a full page cache are not.
