Login IP & Country Restriction

Description

This plugin hooks in the authenticate filter. By default, the plugin is set to allow all access and you can configure the plugin to allow the login only from some specified IPs or the specified countries. PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT YOU CONFIGURE THE PLUGIN TO ALLOW YOUR OWN ACCESS. If you set a restriction by IP, then you have to add your own IP (if you are using the plugin in a local setup the IP is 127.0.0.1 or ::1, this is added in your list by default). If you set a restriction by country, then you have to select from the list of countries at least your country. Both types of restrictions work independent, so you can set only one type of restriction or both if you want. Also, you can configure the redirects to frontpage when the URLs are accessed by someone that has a restriction. The restriction is either by country, or not in the specified IPs list.

This plugin needs an update

I have installed this plugin few months ago and it was working really well. However, in the last couple of days there have been many visits from the blocked countries to the wp login page. Please update the plugin IP database ASAP! Thanks!

Good Set of Free Options (Except for redirection)

I’d like to be able to redirect to a specific page, that doesn’t seem possible in free or PRO version.

Love this!

Does not work

I had only US and outlying US islands available to access the site. Guess wat, every single person in any other countries can access and create accounts with no issues. This does not block anything.

great plugin

so lucky to found this plugin, as im a bit headache in the past few weeks, try to protect my blog from intrusion from overseas. By selecting allowed login only from my country and combined with other full security plugin, suddenly able to reduce the hacking attempt. So i’m continue to install this plugin into my ecommerce site too, as additional layer of security . thank you author. great plugin ??

Excellent plugin – works exactly how you would want it to, with a clear pro-level backend. Simple, logical, well-designed, effective 5?
