Support

Hello,

I have an hunch on what's going on, but can you please confirm it for me?

First of all let's manually disable Admin Tools as described here: https://www.akeeba.com/documentation/atwp/web-application-firewall.html

Do not unblock your IP otherwise you'll delete the records, but instead get inside the Blocked Requests Log and check for your IP. What was the reason for the block?

This means that you enabled the IP WhiteList feature, usually this happens when you run the Quickstart page, since it enabled it by default.

Please get inside the WAF configuration page and in the first tab disable the option "Allow administrator access only to IPs in Whitelist", more info here: https://www.akeeba.com/documentation/atwp/waf-configure.html#waf-configure-basic-protection

mhm... as you describe it, it seems there's something interfering.

Can I connect to your site to run some tests?

I have made this ticket private so that only you and me can see the information posted here.

Please provide me with the following information:

1. The URL to your site's administrator login page
2. Administrator username and password (Network Administrator for WordPress Multisite installations)
3. FTP connection information

Please allow up to one business day (GMT+2 timezone) for me to log in to your site and debug this issue. When I'm done I will post back. Once the issue is fixed, you can revoke my access e.g. by changing the Super Administrator and FTP passwords.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
In order for me to help you fast and accurately, please provide the information by copying the form below, paste it into your reply and fill in the information:

----- Access Information Form -- START -----
WordPress Administrator access

• URL to site's administrator page (e.g. http://www.example.com/wp-admin?foobar):
• Administrator username:
• Administrator password:

FTP connection information

• FTP methods supported (e.g. FTP, FTPS, SFTP):
• FTP Hostname:

Please make sure that you have tested the Administrator connection using a different browser or machine than the one you are using daily. Double check that logging in is possible and that the user has Administrator privileges or, if it's a WordPress multisite installation, Network Administrator privileges. Make sure that your site does not block whole countries or IP ranges which would make it impossible for me to log in / connect by FTP. Finally, please do make sure that the FTP connection works and that logging in to it I have access to your site's files.
