Hello,

Even though we wouldn't recommend banning users by country (mostly because you might be banning legitimate users as well), we will look into this and take it into consideration.

We would like this feature as well; we are a relatively localized business, and we don't really have a need for visitors from Nigeria, Albania, etc.

Thanks!

Hi

I would also very welcome country ban as one of my sites was instantly attacked by african spammers. Hope this option appear in some next update...

Would love to see a country ban... way too many hacker attempts from Russia right now on my sites. They keep changing their IP address but it still originates from the same country/region. Most my customers would be very happy to ban whole regions and countries. Please seriously consider this feature in a future update.

Hi there,

if I could ban certain countries that would be great! People from China and Russia are not able to read my german-language page anyway!

Please consider to include this feature in the next update!

Agreed. For the majority of websites with localized information, this would be a fantastic security enhancement...
