We all know it's coming - the day they will take over.

I guess I told my Google Assistant to "shut" too many times, so in retaliation it blocked me from my website.

BANNED

You do not have permission to view this site.

LIttle does the AI know I self host so I can access the database.  I just don't know what to edit to remove my IP from the ban list.

Please help!

bio lives matter

The temp_ban column in the core_members table contains the banned state.

0 means not banned

-1 means banned 

any other integer in this column is the timestamp until the user should be banned

That is until the AI decides to change things!

Have any of you ever said "shut" to your Google Assistant?  😛

Sorry,  this is not the issue.  temp_ban is 0.

I get the error when visiting my front page, not after logging in.  I can still access the admin area.

If you can access the ACP, verify you haven’t blocked your IP address in ACP > Members > Ban Settings.
