Mod Security Rules Incorrectly Blocking Googlebot

Hello everyone

I'm using CSF Firewall in my blog and the problem is the Mod_Security rules incorrectly blocks Googlebot regularly. It is happening almost every week.

In past I have removed a Mod Security rule which was blocking Googlebot and now a new Mod Security rule 950005 is blocking Googlebot.

Whenever it blocks Googlebot, I manually remove Googlebot IP address from deny list using WHM.

Is there any way to permanently stop this? How can I set Mod Security to not block Googlebot?

Solution :

If you are using CSF, you can add .googlebot.com to "/etc/csf/csf.rignore"

Code:
.googlebot.com

  1. You should see how my partner Wesley Virgin's tale launches in this SHOCKING AND CONTROVERSIAL video.

    You see, Wesley was in the military-and shortly after leaving-he found hidden, "self mind control" tactics that the government and others used to get everything they want.

    As it turns out, these are the same secrets many celebrities (notably those who "come out of nothing") and elite business people used to become rich and successful.

    You probably know that you use less than 10% of your brain.

    Really, that's because the majority of your brain's power is UNCONSCIOUS.

    Perhaps this thought has even occurred INSIDE OF YOUR very own brain... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's brain 7 years ago, while driving an unregistered, beat-up garbage bucket of a car without a license and $3 in his pocket.

    "I'm very frustrated with going through life paycheck to paycheck! Why can't I turn myself successful?"

    You've taken part in those types of thoughts, isn't it right?

    Your success story is going to be written. You just have to take a leap of faith in YOURSELF.

    WATCH WESLEY SPEAK NOW
