 Hi Akeeba,

I want to block all users except whitelist to the backend for the bot attacks.
I created a plugin that a user can go to /beheer instead of /administrator, than his ip is added to the whitelist and redirected to administrator.
So i tell my users go to /beheer instead of /administrator

The reason for this block was to make sure bots cannot harm the site by allot of blocks with different ip's and the server load.
But now you redirect to the domain root, loading the home page is also heavy so i would like to block them with an error text.

Or is it possible to create a .htaccess in the administrator that blocks all but the whitelists with admin tools.
That would be better for performance i think.

I wish you a good day!

Best Regards,
Joris

Hi Tampe,

Nope not working on my server, or combination with other plugins. I go to login in frontend and /beheer and /administrator do not work.

I wil try to create a plugin that blocks everything except some ip's with htaccess, and the ip's can be added by going to /beheer.

I do not want to ask for htaccess login because that is bummer to fill in everytime ;-)

Yep,

and i think it would be a great feature to add a htaccess with only whitelists instead of redirect.
That would be better for performence
