Once enabled, the system should trigger for every site visit. ## FAQ I tested it on myself and its not working for me! If you are logged in as an administrator, the entire system ignores your connection. This is by design to avoid accidentally locking yourself out of your own site! To test, try in a different browser or try logging out (but be careful). ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/d5185809f703e2fdc153d701660a82e7794ec51a623a4bcd250e1a02debba74c? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great as a security layer](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-as-a-security-layer/)󠁿 [vargvikernes](https://profiles.wordpress.org/vargvikernes/) March 20, 2019 Great as a last line of defense, not first line by any means [ Read all 2 reviews ](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/shift8-ip-intel/reviews/) ## Contributors & Developers “Shift8 IP Intel” is open source software.
