Wp Statistics outgoing Port 80 Connections?

  • Hello

    Does the plugin “WP Statistics” make some connections over port 80? Because right after I activated the plugin I got a firewall blocking message from my hoster that some outgoing connections were blocked:
    Time , viewed IP , Views
    06.10.2022 17:53 185.199.108.153 : Port 80 , 4
    06.10.2022 17:53 185.199.109.153 : Port 80 , 3
    06.10.2022 17:53 185.199.110.153 : Port 80 , 4
    06.10.2022 17:53 185.199.111.153 : Port 80 , 6

    Best regards

    Hi,

    Thank you for reporting the issue!

    Yes, the plugin sends visitor information through an HTTP GET request to your server.

    So, can you please tell me why the requests are blocked? is there any special reason? then we can make the request compatible with the Firewall/Faid2ban, etc.

    Best

    Hello,

    Thank you for the reply.
    I got this E-Mail from my Web Hoster. However, it’s written in german, so you might need to translate it.

    Best regards.

    Now my site is completely down. If I deactivate WP-Statistics it works. ??
    Can I sent you somehow a link private, so you can look for the errors through my admin dashboard?

    Edit: Polylang, Yoast SEO and WP-Statistics doesnt work together at my website. Maybe you can test this out by your own testing site?

    Now I tried around to enable debugging and suddenly it works with the same plugins enabled as before when it didnt work. I dont get it ?? However, I dont think it will take long until it′s down again. (Website: dr-modding.com)
    And the hit was recorded sucessfully like in your picture above.

    Thank you for replying, Btw, I still see “Es gab einen kritischen Fehler auf deiner Website.” in your website.

    You can see the Fatal error on the email that you recieved.

    There are some php-Errors on my website. Maybe this helps you to find my issue.

    I appreciate you providing the logs, however the errors are not the cause, could you please ask your server provider what is causing the blocking?
