Module Block Bots v1.1.8 Users based on IP, Country or User-Agent

Sales Page

Deny and block access to your store for unwanted bots or exile users by IP address, country code or user agent.

We have developed this module to help you prevent unwanted users from entering your store, especially robots, spiders, search robots and shopping bots that can harm your store.

Ban by IP address
Write the IP address you want to block and click ‘Confirm’. After that, the person with this IP address will not be able to enter the website and will receive a white page with the following message “Forbidden – you do not have permission to access … on this server”. You can create an unlimited number of IP bans.
Note: you need to provide the full IP address, DO NOT use wildcards such as * or%.

Ban by country
Enter the code of the country you want to block and click ‘Confirm’. After that, all people from that country will not be able to enter the site and will receive a white page with the following message ‘Forbidden – you do not have permission to access … on this server.’ You can create unlimited country bans.
Note: you must have mod_geoip enabled on your server to be able to block users by country (you can ask your hosting to enable it for you).

Banned by user agent
Write the user agent you want to block and click ‘Confirm’. After that, the user agent will not be able to log into the website and will receive a white page with the following message “Forbidden – you do not have permission to access … on this server”. You can create unlimited bans for user agents.
