Blocking my own ip address, not respecting whitelist

chilipepper987 opened this issue · comments

I have my entire ip range in the whitelist,
xxx.xxx.xxx.0/24

but I am still being blocked. I enabled the emergency unlock just to be able to view the settings page. I thought the CIDR range functionality wasn't working so I should try and add my individual ip address. When I tried to save the settings page, I was still blocked.

So I then deleted and reinstalled the plugin, still blocked! Then I went into the database and truncated the 3 ip geo block tables I could find

wp_ip_geo_block_cache, wp_ip_geo_block_logs, wp_ip_geo_block_stat

deleted and reinstalled the plugin, still blocked!

This makes my admin panel unusable.
