Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Royal AI Firewall
Yes, if you use Cloudflare for DDoS protection, general WAF rules, SSL/TLS, or caching. Keep Cloudflare's core protections on. This plugin handles only the AI-bot-specific layer at WordPress, so you can dial down Cloudflare's AI Audit / AI Labyrinth / custom AI-blocking WAF rules. The setup wizard's Cloudflare screen lists exactly which CF toggles to flip.
No. Googlebot, Bingbot, Applebot, and DuckDuckBot are protected from accidental blocking. The per-bot dropdown is disabled for these bots by default. To block any of them, you must explicitly enable the "Search engine override" toggle in Settings, which warns clearly that blocking Googlebot removes your site from Google Search.
Yes. Edge-firewall security plugins run their own firewalls before WordPress loads, so AI bots they block won't appear in this plugin's dashboard — but the two layers don't conflict. The plugin auto-detects popular security plugins on activation and shows compatibility notes.
Yes. The plugin hooks into the WordPress Abilities API (WP 6.9+) and logs every ability invocation regardless of which MCP server triggers it. If Royal MCP 1.4.33 or later is installed, an additional first-party bridge captures every MCP tool call with full detail.
By default, data is preserved. The plugin's tables and logs survive uninstall so a reinstall picks up where you left off. To delete everything on uninstall, check the "Delete all logs, tables, and options when the plugin is uninstalled" toggle in Settings → Data before deactivating.
Almost always a caching plugin caching the REST API response. The plugin already does four things to prevent this — a cache-buster query string on every dashboard request, nocache_headers() + DONOTCACHEPAGE constant on the handler, explicit Cache-Control: no-store response headers, and built-in compatibility filters that opt out of caching for the most common cache plugins. If you use a different cache plugin or a server-side cache (nginx fastcgi_cache, Cloudflare Page Rules, Varnish), exclude the path /wp-json/royal-ai-firewall/* from REST API caching in that plugin's settings.
A fresh bot catalog ships with every Royal AI Firewall release, so every time you update the plugin through your wp-admin → Plugins screen you get the newest catalog automatically — no outbound network call required. Plugin updates typically ship every 2–4 weeks, faster after major AI-vendor launches. If you want catalogs fresher than the per-release cadence, an optional Settings toggle ("Keep catalog updated between releases") opts in to one HTTP GET per day to fingerprints.royalplugins.com. That toggle is off by default; no outbound HTTP call is ever made until you turn it on.
No, not by default. Out of the box the plugin makes zero outbound HTTP calls. The bot catalog ships bundled with the plugin and refreshes on every plugin update. If you explicitly enable the "Keep catalog updated between releases" toggle in Settings or on the final wizard step, the plugin will then make one HTTP GET per day to fetch a fresher catalog — but only after that opt-in, and only that one call. Turning the toggle back off immediately unschedules the cron. No telemetry, license checks, or analytics calls are ever made regardless of toggle state.
No. Every feature ships in the free release on WordPress.org. No upgrade prompts, no license keys, no SaaS subscription.
The plugin's classifier and per-bot controls work at the WordPress layer regardless of which CDN sits in front. The dedicated Cloudflare detection and setup wizard step are Cloudflare-specific because Cloudflare's AI controls are the most common source of operator confusion. Other CDNs that pass AI bot traffic through to WordPress will appear normally in the dashboard.
