 * Hi, on one of my three websites (the busiest) there is nothing in the Num Blocked
   field. There are in the other two websites. Visit log is perfectly populated 
   and clears once a day. Any idea why? thanks

 * Hi,
   **Please check if you are running the latest plugin version.**
 * **On the Settings page, ensure the plugin is not in Test Mode.**
 * **Take a look at the Visitors Log page.**
 * **Attach a screenshot of the dashboard page.** (Specifically the “Total Bots 
   Blocked Last 15 days” chart)
 * **Try running the free Site-Checkup plugin.**
   [https://wordpress.org/plugins/site-checkup/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/site-checkup/advanced/)
 * **Then, please let me know the results.**
   Regards,Bill

 * This warning indicates that **another plugin sent HTTP headers too early**, preventing
   the “Stop Bad Bots” plugin from blocking malicious visits. Headers are used to
   control redirects, cookies, and caching, and if sent prematurely, they disrupt
   the normal plugin execution flow.
 *  **Why It Happens:**
    - A conflicting plugin or theme outputs data or calls `header()`/`setcookie()`
      too soon.
    - Common culprits include caching, redirection, or optimization plugins.
    - Whitespace or characters before/after PHP tags (`<?php` / `?>`) can also cause
      this.
 * **Impact:**
    - **Bots are not blocked** → Unwanted traffic consumes server resources.
    - Potential security risks if malicious bots access the site.
 *  **How to Fix:**
    1. **Identify the conflicting plugin** by deactivating others one by one.
    2. **Check the theme** by switching to a default WordPress theme temporarily.
    3. **Contact support** for the problematic plugin if identified.
