Articles on: [Shopify Platform] Blockify - Fraud IP Blocker

A complete guide: Home page

Overview


Home is the first page you see when you open Blockify. It shows whether Blockify is running on your storefront, how much of the Free plan allowance you have used, a summary of what Blockify has caught, and shortcuts to settings and support.


What you'll learn



Status card


The status card near the top of Home has one row per item. Each row shows its state and the button to change it.

Button

Quota usage (Free plan only)

View details opens Pricing


Both the app embed and the app status must be on for rules, VPN and bot protection, content protection and visitor analytics to work. See Activate Blockify and the app embed for the steps.


If you have not finished setting up, the Recommended set up panel also appears on Home with the next step to take. See Set up Blockify for your first use case.


Free plan limits on Home


The Free plan includes 2 active rules and visitor logs for the first 200 unique visitors. The allowance does not reset. Home warns you before you reach either limit.


Visitor allowance banner


This banner appears under the Quota usage row.


  • At 80%: You've used {{pct}}% of your free visitor allowance, with the button See plans.
  • At 100%: Free visitor allowance used. New visitors are no longer recorded in Analytics. The button is Upgrade plan.


Important: Blocking keeps working after the allowance is used. Only visitor logging stops.


Active rule banner


This banner appears at the top of Home and on Block & Re-director. It shows your count as {{used}}/{{limit}} active rules and a Manage rules button.


  • 1 active rule slot left: activating one more rule uses up your Free plan allowance.
  • Active rule limit reached: to activate another rule, turn off an existing one or upgrade.


See A complete guide: Plans and billing for what each paid plan includes.


Overview card


The Overview card summarises what Blockify has caught. Use the date picker at the top right of the card to change the period. Nothing is switched on or off from this card; its links take you to the page where you change things.

Each row has an On or Off badge; click a row to open that setting. View settings opens Settings.

Who can use this feature?


Available on all plans. The Quota usage row and the limit banners appear on the Free plan only.


FAQs


  1. Why don't I see the Quota usage row?


The row only appears on the Free plan. On a paid plan, your visitor usage is shown on the Pricing page.


  1. I used my Free visitor allowance. Is my store still protected?


Yes. Your rules and protections keep running. Only new visitors stop being recorded in Analytics.


  1. Why does Your protection show Off for a setting?


The badge reflects your current setting. Click the row (or View settings) and turn the protection on in Settings. Some protections need a paid plan.


  1. Search settings did not find what I typed. What can I do?


Try a shorter word from the setting name, such as "bot" or "country". If the setting is not in the list, open it from the left navigation.
