While this plugin is great in theory, I’ve had it suddenly fail on three different sites now, taking down the whole site with it and start throwing an error page. In two cases it partially uninstalled itself, in another it hung up the site. (No, it wasn’t due to updates on other plugins/WP/Wordfence. LITERALLY spontaneously imploded.) Meaning I had to FTP into the directory and disable the folder to get the site back up and running. (This happened both with the pro version and the free version.) Fortunately, I was knowledgeable enough to do that on my own without having to bring in outside (expensive) tech support. I can only imagine how frustrating that’d be for someone who needs a wysiwyg site and has no clue about how to do that.
I don’t know why it spontaneously stops working, but the third time/site was the charm for me and I uninstalled it across all the sites I manage. I’ve achieved similar results using a couple of other plugins to block the majority of malicious inbound traffic with geo/ip blocking plugins.
It’s a shame, because I loved many of the features of this software.
