iQ Block Country splits its rules into frontend and backend protection, with separate country selections for each. The selections live in wp_options, the IP-to-country lookups run against the plugin's bundled database, and a log row records each blocked request with the country code, the IP, the requested URL, and the rule type.

The default admin lays the rule lists out as long checklists, with the block log presented on its own tab. Operators who want to compare which countries hit which URLs, or which rule (frontend vs backend) actually does the blocking, have to flip between tabs and rebuild filters every visit.

SleekView reads the option-stored configuration and the log together. Each row carries the country code, the IP, the URL, the rule type, and the timestamp. Saved views like Backend blocks in the last 24 hours or Frontend blocks for unexpected countries replace the export-and-pivot workflow. The plugin still decides what to drop; SleekView turns its records into a queryable workspace.

iQ Block Country covers both halves of the country-block question, blocking risky countries on the frontend and locking down the admin from countries that do not log in. The detail is in the data: two option-stored selections, a per-request block log, and the IP-to-country resolution that ties them together. The plugin admin keeps each piece on its own tab, which works while everything is calm and falls short the moment an operator needs to compare them.

SleekView reads both halves as paired sources and renders them as one workspace inside WordPress. The plugin keeps owning the block decision, the country database, and the rule edits. The team gets a triage surface with saved views, role scoping, and CSV exports that honour the active filter set, so the work iQ Block Country already does becomes legible at the speed an on-call operator actually needs to read it.
