Please look at the bottom of this page (under Support Policy Summary) for our support policy summary, containing important information regarding our working hours and our support policy. Thank you!

(I need to temporarily disable System-Admin Tools plugin and have to first set Defend against plugin deactivation to No.)

Admin Tools > Configure WAF
When trying to save:
Defend against plugin deactivation (No)

I get this message:
Field required: IP Address
There were errors trying to save the Web Application Firewall's configuration.

I can't find any field for IP address there so not sure what to do. Would really appreciate your advice.

Hello,

please get inside the Exceptions tab and take a look at the field "Never block these IP", is there an empty field? If so please delete it and then try to save it again.

Oh, thank you so much! That worked. There was an empty field at the bottom there and I deleted it.

What a relief! Thank you!
