In this guide, we’ll walk you through the simple steps to enable this protection.

  1. Login to your WPO portal using this link.

  2. Click on “My Sites” and select the website where you want to block AI crawler bots.

  3. Now go to the “Security” tab under Cloudflare.

  4. You will see the first section labeled “Block Requests from AI Crawler Bots.” Enable it from the settings.
