 Hello,
I installed the Geo-IP-Block-Plugin and Admintools. In the settings I selected all Countries (exept Germany) AND all Continents.
Now I get the Error 403...

I think, I was to fast.

Is there a way to get access again? In phpmyadmin I didn`t find something...

Can you help me?

Greetings.
David

David,

You should be able to disable the GeoIP plugin by renaming the file /plugins/system/akgeoip/akgeoip.php. Once you get your settings straightened out you will need to rename it back. You will most likely get a warning from Admin Tools about a changed file while you have it renamed.

Hej Dale,
i changed the name of the file but it doesn`t work.
Alway the same error:

403 - You've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky?

OK, I think it is Admin Tools itself that has you locked out. Let's disable Admin Tools with the instructions here: https://www.akeebabackup.com/documentation/troubleshooter/atwafissues.html.
