Bad Bots were a bigger issue many years ago because they caused excessive server load. These days the server load is insignificant because PHP, web servers, etc. have improved so much.

Or in other words, not really worth the effort.

In order for your checks to work you would have to grab a list of valid IP addresses for Meta, put them into an array and check against that array.

Actually, what I want to achieve is only a reverse dns, to make sure that e.g., when a meta crawler HEAD or GET from 57.141.0.17 arrives, something checks the IP belongs to Meta and if not, drop it. There is a plugin that does that, BotBlocker Security, but I’m reluctant to have it along BPS PRO.

You’re the best!

I’ve purchased Pro. You deserve it for all of your hard work.

Delete the BPS root htaccess file – it’s in the same folder where the wp-config.php file is.
Login to your website.
Go to BPS Root Custom Code.
Delete the old 7.4 php/php.ini handler htaccess code in Custom Code text box #1
Save your changes.
Activate Root Folder BulletProof mode.

Have used it for years without issue. Today, however, I’ve experienced a problem.

My host has just set our PHP version to 8.2.31 from 7.4. I had a BPS dialog at the top of the dashboard suggesting I needed to run the Setup Wizard to clear things up. Alas, after that, clicking on anything in the dashboard or on the site opens a…[Read more]

What specific error or behavior are you trying to diagnose?

If that code is saved in BPS Custom Code then delete it. If it is not saved in BPS Custom Code then you don’t need to do anything. If the only thing that you have saved in BPS Custom Code is the php handler htaccess code then that is ok. I don’t see anything in the htaccess…[Read more]

We use Ad Inserter Pro (adsense plugin) and none Catching plugins at all, either in wordpress config.php, either in our server.

Maybe, if we place the one you have shared with us, our websites will go much slower? And, if I take off from cutom code this:

So delete that code. Are you using an Adsense WordPress plugin? Are you using any WordPress caching plugins? Check the BPS Security Log for any Security Log entries that show what is being blocked.
