I have added the offending IP address to the banned list and it was still hitting my website causing many emails. I checked the .htaccess file and the security plugin appeared to have altered it, but the banning didn’t seem to have any change on the IP address being able to continue to attack the site.

In the end I had to log into cpanel to block the IP address. Is there something wrong with the Ban feature?

100% agree with you. But in the event someone else comes across the same issue, this is what my current use case is:

• Extending the Twenty Thirteen theme
• Using Foundation 4 to create a custom child theme, not a pre-built theme
• Unregistering a number of parent theme features to reduce page load time and simplify the templates.

What worked:

function remove_parent_theme_functionality(){
   add_filter('tablepress_use_default_css','__return_false');
}
add_action('after_setup_theme','remove_parent_theme_functionality',11);

Thanks again for the awesome plugin, it is a job well done.

Okay, I figured out a way to do it from the child theme.

I used the above add_filter call along with action “after_setup_theme”:

function remove_parent_theme_functionality(){
add_filter('tablepress_use_default_css','__return_false');
}
add_action('after_setup_theme','remove_parent_theme_functionality',11);

This worked from within my child theme.

Tobias,
First off, thanks so much for all your hard work with this plugin, it shows, and it is appreciated!

I am trying to implement the above plugin filter hook you wrote about for disabling the default css and it doesn’t seem to be stopping the default css sheet from loading.

I have added it into a child themes function.php file. Is there something I am missing?

Thanks in advance!
