# Feature Request

 * I have just switched from WordFence to this plugin, one of the main missing features
   is the ability to block IP’s etc directly from the plugin, either permanently
   or temporarily.
 * In the Siteground dashboard there is also only an option to block IP’s, no ranges,
   user agents etc.
 * I have resorted to doing it manually in the htaccess file, however for a lot 
   of users this would be too technical.
 * As such, I like to request an option to make blocking IP’s, IP ranges, user agents
   and refers directly via the plugin like you can with WordFence.
 * Pretty please 🙂

 * Update, I found you can block individual IP’s from the current settings. Would
   still be nice to add IP ranges, user agents etc.

 * Thank you [@nanasflowers](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nanasflowers/) 
   for your feedback!
 * I will pass your suggestion to our developers and they will consider its implementation
   in the next plugin releases.

 * Sorry [@nanasflowers](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nanasflowers/), but
   I forgot to mention that you can actually add IP ranges via WP-CLI using the 
   following command:
 * **wp sg login-access add <IP.IP.IP.IP/IP>**
 * This functionality will be also added to the plugin Login Access section.
