      Hi

      I have a manual floating rule I've added and want it on top of the floating rules list (pass specific IP's).
      But after each pfblocker update it gets put on the bottom and all the geoip block rules get triggered and the IP is blocked.
      How can I keep MY rule on top??

        @manilx Or is there a better way to let certain IP's pass even being in blocked GeoIP rules?

          @Manila pfBlocker has a drop-down for rule ordering. However I just have it create the list as Alias Native and create my own rules as desired.

          Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
          When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.

            @steveits In the IP/IPv4 I can drag&drop the rules in order BUT the GeoIP rules are always created on top.
