Settings

After nominating an IP or domain address to allow/deny, you can then nominate which content on your website that the rules should be applied to. For example, you can nominate which pages are protected by nominating the whole link like:

• /gallery_showcase/
• example.com/?page_id=123

Or you can nominate sections by using only part of the link like:

• gallery
• showcase
• page_id
• /

Nominating “/” will apply referrer check to your whole site. If your website uses several different domain names you can make nominations that mention the page/section only.

Domain names can server all aliases, for example using example.com will also allow news.example.com.
