 * I uninstalled and reinstalled and the problem disappeared. It’s just a pity that
   you have to do such things and expose yourself to the “unveiling” before eg Majestic.

 * Hi Mjiovich,
 * Our API is working fine. If you click
    [http://stopbadbots.com/api/httpapi.php](http://stopbadbots.com/api/httpapi.php)
   you can see it. Load quickly and quietly, without error messages.
 * Check the memory tab (at plugin panel) to know your memory status. Maybe you 
   running out of memory. You will find suggestions there how to increase WordPress
   Memory.
    **Dashboard=> StopBadBors => Memory Tab.**
 * We just uploaded the **version 3.7** with more limited timeout. Please, install
   it and try.
 * If doesn’t fix it, go to our panel
    **Dashboard=> StopBadBors => General Settings
   Tab.** and disable the Participate in the Real-Time … (change to no)
 * To give you more info, we need access your server. In this case, please, go to
   your support page and leave us a temporary WordPress user / password.

 * Hi,
    This helped the other solution (Real-Time Bad Bots Security Network). However,
   I increased the wp-config.php memory as recommended – but that did not help. 
   So I will not have updated databases of robots on a regular basis?
 * Regards,
    Kris

 * Hi Kris,
 * If you check the option:

   in Real Time … You shold receive updates around each 4 days.
 * Check if the bots quantity change in your table. Please take a note and check
   after 4 days.
 * Check also the memory checkup tab if you have available memory to run your site.
   
   You will find more info about (also wordpress oficial info link about) at memory
