Hey!

Admin Tools Pro sends an email each time a user logs in to the backend.
This email contains always information from the GeoIP-DB saying "Country: (unknown country)" and "Continent: (unknown continent)" (please see the attached screenshots).

I've updated the GeoIP-DB to the latest version (see also the second screenshot) but I still get only the above information from it - not really useful.

What can I do to repair this?
Thanks!

Regards,
Vlad

Hello,

this is a side effect of GDPR affecting MaxMind database, so we had to remove such feature from Admin Tools.
