FAQ

Does this work anywhere?

At the moment, Easy Country Spam Blocker only works for U.S.-based websites.

Can I redirect to any website?

Yes. Navigate to Settings->Easy Country Spam Blocker to change the redirection URL.

Is this a security plugin?

Not entirely. While blocking out visitors from regions/locations you do not want to target is very useful in preventing spam, it is not a real security measure.

Can I disable this on specific pages?

Yes you can. When editing a page, find “ESCB Settings” and make sure “Enabled” is NOT checked.

Gutenberg not supported.
