    Thank you!

    So we generally have two people logged into the same user (Admin) at the same time, from different IP addresses – does whitelisting the Admin role in the Additional Roles IP Whitelist tool take that into consideration? Meaning, do both IP addressed get whitelisted at the same time or will they be competing?

    If you have multiple users logging into a website at the same time then yes you would want to use the Additional Roles IP Whitelist option.  Things will still work fine if you do not do that, but it is just smarter to use that option.

    When I check your site and check this js file:  /wp-content/plugins/wptubevideo/js/my_script.js it is not being blocked by BPS or anything else.  When I check your YouTube videos here:  http://raptorsvape.com/blog/ the are playing normally.  Maybe Plugin Firewall AutoPilot Mode already created a whitelist rule for this script?  AutoPilot Mode whitelist rules are created on the next scheduled AutoPilot Mode Cron Job run.  ie every x minutes.

    Hi BPS,
    Yes it was not block, I though the info that be shown via Security Log is something that need to be solve. By the way, there’s one function that may not functioning. CAPCHA by BPS
    If you register as a NEW MEMBER, the CAPTCHA is a must to enter.
    However, when you “log out” > “clear cache” and try to relogin via ” http://raptorsvape.com/login/ ”
    You do not need to enter the BPS CapTCHA but still can LOGIN after you had inserted your username and password
    I checked the Login Security in BPS is Turn ON. The JTC Anti-Spam Hacker Anti-Hacker is ON as well and was checked on Login Form, Register Form and Comment Form.  > Subscriber was checked as well.

    Please advice on the issue.
    Thanks.
    Regards,
    Alex

    Sounds like a problem with your Theme ClassiPress.  Maybe it is taking over login processing or cancelling out JTC?  Try switching your Theme to the WordPress 2016 theme and see if the same problem occurs.  Also WP Fastest Cache file is caching your login page.  Login pages and forms should never be cached for any reason.  So exclude the custom /login/page from being cached by WP Fastest Cache.

    Hi BPS,
    Okay I will check out the WP Cache. In the Classic Press itself it does have a reCaptcha function as well, but i did not activate it cause i am using BPS 🙂
    By the way…new error about PFW. There’s an error come out as below :-
    Activate Plugin Firewall (PFW) BulletProof Mode button Read M
    Error: Your Whitelist rules either have additional/extra whitespaces between whitelist rules, line breaks/new lines between or after your whitelist rules or no space after the comma between your plugin scripts/paths/rules. Click on the Plugin Firewall Whitelist Tools accordion tab and click the Save Whitelist Options button to see if this automatically fixes the problem. If the error is still occurring then correct/fix any invalid plugin whitelist rules in the Plugins Script|File Whitelist Text Area. Edit your Whitelist rules to correct the error and click the Save Whitelist Options button and activate the Plugin Firewall again. Valid plugin Whitelist rules MUST use ONLY this Format: /plugin-folder-name/plugin-script.js, /plugin-folder-name/(.*).js. Plugin paths/scripts are separated by a comma and a single space. Your whitelist rules should be one continuous single line of scripts/paths/rules without any line breaks/new lines.

    In the File Whitelist Text Area does only contain the text below: /backupbuddy/pluginbuddy/js/admin.js What should I do ? PFW is off now.
    Looking forward for your help.
    Regards,
    Alex

    I have turned-on the JTC protection on my website.  Do I also have to edit my .htaccess file to block IP addresses that are repeatedly trying to login to my site, or is enabling JTC sufficient?  Thank you.

    @ Andrew – JTC blocks 100% of all automated login attempts/attacks by hackerbots and spambots.  99.99% of all login attempts/attacks are automated using Bots.  Your Security Log logs all blocked hackerbots and spambots.  So nope you should not have to add any other Login security measures for your website.

    Hello BPS,
    Thanks for the hard work!
    I encounter some issue in whitelist plugin which I need your guide on how to correct it.
    Error Message:-
    Error: One or more of your Whitelist rules are not valid
    Click on the Plugin Firewall Whitelist Tools accordion tab and correct/fix any invalid plugin whitelist rules in the Plugins Script|File Whitelist Text Area.
    Edit your Whitelist rules and correct whitelist rules that contain any of these invalid things:
    ver=, page=, src=, www, http, https, href, .com, .net, .org, .biz, .info, .gov, .edu and
    click the Save Whitelist Options button and activate the Plugin Firewall again.
    Valid plugin Whitelist rules MUST use ONLY this Format: /plugin-folder-name/plugin-script.js, /plugin-folder-name/(.*).js. Plugin paths/scripts are separated by a comma and a single space.
    And my plugin script:-

    /akismet/_inc/form.js, /jetpack/modules/wpgroho.js, /contact-form-7/includes/js/jquery.form.min.js, /jetpack/modules/photon/photon.js, /contact-form-7/includes/js/scripts.js, /mts-wp-google-translate/public/js/wp-google-translate-public.js, /wp-fastest-cache/js/schedule.js, /wp-fastest-cache/js/toolbar.js, /jetpack/modules/related-posts/related-posts.js, /better-analytics/js/loader.php?ver=1.1.4.js, /bbpress/templates/default/js/editor.min.js, /jetpack/modules/sharedaddy/sharing.js, /wp-random-button/js/functions.js

    Please guide me on which script that cause the problem and need to change.
    Regards,
    Alex

    @ AW – remove “?ver=1.1.4.js” from this Plugin Firewall rule and click the save/Activate button again:  /better-analytics/js/loader.php?ver=1.1.4.js

    I didn’t want to Hijack your other thread so I post my problem here. The BPS GUI is broken on my Site. I disable all plugins and switch to any standard WP twenty-X themes, the GUI is still broken. Disabling the Plugin Firewall instantly resolves the problem.

    As all plugins were disabled (but BPS) and a standard theme was chosen, I had no more ideas.

    I am getting a lot of REQUEST_URI: /wp-content/plugins/bulletproof-security/admin/js/bps-ui-dialog.js?ver=12.3 Errors though. Feel free to further investigate my site, it’s development/testing only.
