Hello thanks for the report.

Could you confirm this behavior is reproducible when you uncheck "Ignore HTTP header" plugin option?

huyhoang8398 commented 6 months ago

Hi @Pierre-Lannoy

Yes, I already disabled that, the issue persists

That's a first from my side… Is Cloudflare IP geolocation correctly activated? (https://developers.cloudflare.com/network/ip-geolocation/)

huyhoang8398 commented 6 months ago

yes, i already enabled that. It strange because sometime it detects wrong even with the same client source IP, i noticed also Wordfence WordPress also sometime detects wrong, so I dont know what I should check/config

Hello @huyhoang8398 ! Did you find what was going wrong with the headers sent by Cloudflare?
