# Activity Log | Wrong Visitor Type

 * We love your Activity Log feature. Unfortunately, it is not labeling correctly
   certain “Visitor Types.”
 * For example, we’ve been receiving a lot of visits from [PetalBot](https://aspiegel.com/petalbot)(
   a bad bot, search engine crawler) which slows down our website and consumes server
   resources.
 * Your Activity Log is labeling PetalBot as “Human.” Should be “Non-Human” or simply“
   petalbot” — similar to showing “googlebot” under “Visitor Type” when it crawls
   our website.
 * Click [here](https://prnt.sc/18j81l2) for a quick look at what we’re seeing.
 * To relieve your server(s), we blocked PetalBot with Cloudflare using ASN AS136907
   and within our htaccess file using the proper USER AGENT code.
 * PS: Adding an Automatic Bad Bot Blocking feature to your plugin would be awesome.
   Perhaps it’s already on your roadmap.
 * Thank you!

 * Hey [@jetxpert](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jetxpert/)
 * We are aware of the Activity Log issues and we are currently working on several
   fixes.
 * We will release a new version this or next week, which will fix most of the issues.
 * We will add the PetalBot to the existing Bot list, which the plugin uses.
 * Regards,
    Stanimir
