- What are the differences between the blacklist and the whitelist?
Please check the comparison table below:
Category | Blacklist | Whitelist |
|---|---|---|
Function | All items in the blacklist will be blocked from your website | All items in the whitelist will always have access to your website |
Hierachy | Adhere to items in the whitelist | Override items in the blacklist |
Priority | Low | High |
Exception | Items will not be blocked if they're also on the whitelist | Items will still be blocked if they use VPN/Proxy connections |
A quick way to understand how they work together is: If you add Australia into the blacklist and an Australian IP address to the whitelist, only that Australian IP address will have access to your website (others will be blocked).
- What happens when you block and redirect the same IP address or a country?
When you both block and redirect the same IP address or a country, whichever rule you add first will be applied to your store.
For example: If you block country A first, then redirect users of country A to Google, the blocking rule will be applied to your store.
