Overview
The SDLC Country Block plugin lets you restrict access to individual posts and pages based on the visitor’s country, while keeping SEO bots and crawlers unblocked for safe indexing.
🔐 4 Layers of Country Detection
To ensure maximum compatibility, the plugin checks for the visitor’s country in this order:
1. Cloudflare header (CF-IPCountry)
2. Server GeoIP variables (if your hosting environment provides them)
3. PHP GeoIP extension (geoip_country_code_by_name)
4. Wordfence plugin (using Wordfence GEO detection)
⚠️ Note: At least one of these extensions or plugins must be enabled. If none are active, the plugin cannot detect visitor countries.
