<h4>Privacy and GeoIP</h4>
<p>IP blocking works without any third-party service. Country and region blocking requires either a readable local GeoIP database or an explicitly configured API provider.</p>
<p>Visitor IP addresses are not sent externally unless an administrator selects API provider mode and configures an API endpoint. Optional logs store only date/time, IP address, matched rule type, and requested path.</p>
<h4>Admin safety</h4>
<p>NexiGuard is disabled by default after activation. Logged-in administrators are never blocked by default. The admin screen displays the detected admin IP and requires confirmation before adding an IP/CIDR rule that matches it.</p>
<p>Emergency bypass: define <code>NEXIGUARD_DISABLE</code> as <code>true</code> in <code>wp-config.php</code> to stop all blocking.</p>
<h3>External Services</h3>
<p>NexiGuard does not contact any external service by default.</p>
<p>If an administrator selects API provider mode and configures an API endpoint, NexiGuard sends a GET request to that administrator-configured endpoint to look up country and region data for visitor IP addresses. The visitor IP address is sent in the configured URL using the <code>{ip}</code> placeholder or as an <code>ip</code> query parameter. If an API key is configured, it is sent as a Bearer token in the Authorization header.</p>
<p>Because the API endpoint is entered by the site administrator, the site owner is responsible for reviewing that provider’s terms of service and privacy policy before enabling API provider mode.</p>
<p>Local IP and CIDR blocking do not use any external service. MaxMind mode reads a local database file and does not send visitor IPs externally.</p>

<p>The main reason i’ve made this plugin is to block those who want to copy the contents of WordPress’s default RSS Feed.</p>


Block RSS Reading

This a simple to use WordPress plugin that let you to set another RSS Feed Url to be displayed for one or a list of many IP's.
