Could this plugin be expanded to have the log file written to the filesystem somewhere ?
This would allow me to read it in to fail2ban and firewall the blocked IP addresses so they don’t bother me again for a chosen time.
Thanks.

Working perfectly! Thanks for the quick response and fix.

Interesting. I'll take a look. Did you install it from the zip here or automatically through the installer or the zip on Wordpress.org? I expect that this is an oversight on my part. Edit - Indeed it was, I forgot to build my zip file correctly. The zip has been refreshed now based on the one on the plugins directory. For info, the directory name needs to be bad-behavior-log-reader

I installed your bblogreader V1.7 onto my WordPress V 2.7 blog running Bad Behavior V2.0.25 and activated the plug-in and set the options.

There were no install issues other than the zip file with V1.7 did not contain its own directory folder, so it installed into the root of the wordpress plugins folder instead of its own plugin subfolder.
I created a directory called “bblogreader” (not knowing if the name has to be something specific) and copied the php and other files into that folder….and activated, set the options, etc.

I checked the fdirectory permission were set to the default directory “755″ permissions, and the php to the default “644″ permissions.

Now, my problem is that when I try to view the log from the dashboard, I get a “Cannot load bblr.php.” error.

Any ideas?

thanks!

This is going to make my life easier. Been looking into some plugin to see what BB was doing because it says a certain # of access attempts were blocked in the last 7 days, but I did not know what that really meant. So thanks again that we don’t have to view database tables via SQL.
