COMPATIBILITY REVIEW
How WP fail2ban Blocklist compatibility is evaluated
01 · Review official plugin evidence
Establish documented plugin behaviour before making any multilingual compatibility claim.
02 · Identify visitor-facing content
Determine whether the documented behaviour exposes human-readable values that visitors can see.
03 · Separate content from functionality
Keep structure, configuration, logic, integrations and runtime behaviour outside translation scope unless concrete content values are identified.
04 · Confirm translation scope
Publish supported content only when concrete visitor-facing values are explicitly established and can be validated.
PLUGIN INTELLIGENCE
What the official plugin evidence shows
Plugin capabilities
- Collaborative preemptive IP blocklisting via a Blocklist Network Service (BNS) that collects attack data from participating sites and periodically returns lists of IPs to block before they attack a given site.
- BNS communication uses the WordPress REST API endpoint `/wp-json/wp-fail2ban/v1/blocklist` (and the plugin notes that other security plugins must allow access to this endpoint).
- Requires opt-in to Freemius for the blocklist to work, because BNS must know which sites are running the add-on, the add-on version, and a shared secret for secure communication.
- Blocklist data handling is described as collecting only minimum data (time, IP, event) and only for IPs that have behaved maliciously; it also states BNS does not collect personal data.
- Compatibility dependency on the core WP fail2ban plugin: the add-on requires WP fail2ban to be installed (and the readme notes a minimum WP fail2ban version requirement).
- Operational dependency on fail2ban jail configuration: the readme instructs setting `maxretry = 1` in the `wordpress-hard` or `wpf2b-blocklist-hard` jail for the add-on to work.
CONTENT BOUNDARY
WP fail2ban Blocklist capabilities and translation scope are documented separately.
The available evidence documents plugin functionality, but does not currently establish a specific visitor-facing translation surface.
Functional capability alone is not treated as evidence that a value should be translated.
LIMITATIONS & QA
Verification notes
- This integration is documented for compatibility context. Visitor-facing translation scope is not listed for this category.
