Super Bot Fight Mode is now configurable!

What's this blog post about?

Cloudflare has made its Super Bot Fight Mode configurable by rewriting it as a new managed ruleset in the WAF, allowing users to create exceptions using "Skip" rules. This will enable customers to better manage their website security and accommodate different use-cases, such as WordPress loopback requests. The company plans to integrate this feature with its Cloudflare WordPress plugin in the future. Additionally, they aim to extend similar customization options to Free plan users for the original Bot Fight Mode, allowing more free customers than ever before to join in the fight against bots.
