❓ Frequently Asked Questions
How does Geo Blocker detect country?
It uses the reliable IpWhoIs API to fetch country data based on the visitor’s IP.
Will it slow down my site?
Nope. It’s optimized with transient caching and smart triggers — no unnecessary lookups.
Can I lock myself out?
No. There’s a login bypass URL generated for administrators — shown right on the dashboard.
Can I block specific pages?
Not yet — current version works site-wide. Per-page rules may come in a future update.
Can I export visitor logs?
Yes. Logs can be exported in CSV or JSON format directly from the Logs tab.
Does it work with caching plugins?
Yes, but you may need to exclude the plugin’s logic from caching. Dynamic geo checks should not be cached.
