Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about PSB Bot Traffic Controller

No — PSB Bot Traffic Controller runs inside WordPress (or, for the mu-plugin path, as early in WordPress's own bootstrap as possible) and cannot intercept traffic before it reaches your web server. It complements, rather than replaces, edge-level protection.

An admin notice is shown with the filesystem error. The plugin still activates, but early interception won't run until the mu-plugin is successfully installed (retry by deactivating/reactivating, or check file permissions on wp-content/mu-plugins/).

Add define( 'PSB_BTC_DEBUG', true ); to wp-config.php on a staging/test site. This enables a rotating-token reset URL shown on the Dashboard (valid for a few hours at a time, then automatically expires). It is disabled by default and should never be enabled on a production site.
