Protect your site from malicious bots and scanners using a smart honeypot trap.

== Description ==

Stop malicious bots and scanners instantly using a smart honeypot trap.

Protect your website from unauthorized crawlers and malicious bots that ignore your site's robots.txt directives. Fstyle Honeypot Bot Blocker provides a lightweight yet powerful security layer by automatically detecting and blocking intruders.

Once installed, it sets a hidden trap path in your robots.txt. If a bot attempts to access this forbidden area, its IP address is immediately captured and blocked from accessing your entire site.

== Features ==

* **Instant Honeypot Block**: Automatically adds a trap path to your robots.txt.
* **IP Management Dashboard**: View detailed logs of blocked IP addresses and manage them easily.
* **Smart Whitelist**: Add trusted service IPs to prevent accidental lockouts.
* **Ultra-Lightweight**: Built for performance with minimal database impact.

== Installation ==

1. Upload the `fstyle-honeypot-bot-blocker` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.
3. Access settings via the "Fstyle Blocker" menu in your dashboard.
