 ====== IP Banning ======
+Admin Page: **Site Setup > IP Banning**
 Use this utility to ban users from accessing your site who are connecting from a specific IP Address. Users from these IP Addresses may only view the front page of the site. If they attempt to view any other pages, the software will continue to only show them the front page.
-You can place as many IPs as you wish.  It allows the use of "*" for a **wildcard**, so you can match partial IPs.  For example if you use 10.10.* it will ban anyone with an IP that starts with "10.10.", anyone in that block range.

 <tip c n>**Tip:**  It is important to include the . if blocking an IP range.  If you specify **10.10* **for instance, that will match both 10.10.x.x AND 10.10x.x.x.  If you include the . by using **10.10.* ** that will NOT match 10.10x.x.x, it will only match 10.10.x.x.</tip>
