Hello @Peter Debik , Sincerely, it's urgent now. I receive a lot of fake comments each day from a lot of IPs based in Russia/ China. If I solve this, no bad bots from Russia and China can access to my site. Can you confirm in the last post that the documentation apply for Plesk Obsidian ?

Okay, I'll wait so. Do I need to uninstall Geo2ip lite database PACKAGE or I can keep it ?
