    The server IP keeps hitting this domain: 205.196.209.22 – – [15/Aug/2024:09:17:11 -0700] “GET /wp-content/plugins/events-block-for-the-events-calendar/block.json HTTP/1.1” 200 9099 “-” “WordPress/6.6.1; https://my.domain.com”

    This started happening last March, and it brought my site down twice because it’s causing 503 errors.

    I’ve reverted to version 1.1 from september of 2023.

    I’d be grateful if you could fix this.

    Cheers,

    Chris

    Hi there,

    Sorry for the inconvenience caused.

    Can you please let us know, if you are getting any error in the log file regarding our plugin?

    Also, it would be great if you can share the theme and plugin list you are using so we can replicate the scenario at our end and fix the issue you are facing.

    Hope this helps.

    Below is the how the site is set up. Our site actually got so hit by this plugin that we were asked by the hosting provider to consider finding an alternative plugin. It did finally cause the site to cave on multiple occasions. I had to contact support to reboot the site because it was not something I could do from the user shell access.

    I created this tool to get a quick overview of what was going on:
    https://github.com/LaughterOnWater/logx

    There were no errors specifically from the .json file. It was just continually pounding amazon servers. It’s sort of a testament to the shared hosting solution that it dealt with it.

    Here’s an odd twist too: It was active, but apparently we didn’t even have a page that made use of its capabilties. Apparently I forgot to disable it when I found an alternative months ago. Then at some point, it just started misbehaving. Anyway, I hope the information below helps.

    Chris

    Hi @laughter-on-water

    We have fixed the issue of hitting the block.json again and again in our latest update i.e 1.3.2. Please update the plugin to latest version at your end to fix the issue.

    Hope this helps.
