Block countries with 404 Error

[AdminHaptX]

I know that using the Geolocation settings I can block countries from creating an account, but is there a way to block countries from accessing the site at all? I want it to just come up with a 404 error code. I can't seem to find an answer on this.

Sorry, there would not be a way to do this in the software. You can block countries from registering or block IP addresses which would see a message about not being able to access the community.

You will need a custom app for that.

Is that something I can find on the marketplace?

This is better handled at server level.

The Marketplace is closed. I don't remember seeing such an app though before in the Marketplace. You will have to find someone to develop such an app for you.

As Adriano mentioned above, you're better off doing something like this at the server level.

It's possible to write a custom modification for it, but the user would still hit the server, start a request on Invision Community, run queries, use more server resources, etc. If you handle it at the server level they'll be blocked much faster and use fewer resources overall.
