    Hi,

    I would like to know if there is a way to add multiple usernames to “Immediately block the IP of users who try to sign in as these usernames” instead of one by one.

    I have a list of usernames that bots keep using for the websites i manage and i have to add them one by one. the list keeps getting bigger and bigger and would like to know if there is a way to put them in a list or CSV and add all the names at once.

    Thanks

    Jason

    Hi @jjoannides,

    Yes, if you simply paste a comma-separated list into the “Immediately block the IP of users who try to sign in as these usernames” field, they will auto-create as separate entries. A trailing comma at the end will ensure all are added with no need to hit return on the final entry:

    exampleusername1, exampleusername2, exampleusername3,

    Exporting a CSV file or other data in this way will make things a bit quicker for the copying those usernames before pasting them into Wordfence.

    Thanks,
    Peter.
