Tom,
Just resolved an issue that was blamed on my attempts to save %current_year% in GP’s Copyright add-on. This apparently triggered a ModSecurity rule that blocked my IP for 24 hours on more than one occasion, making it impossible to access my sites/dashboards from any device on my home wifi.
It was eventually solved by a .htaccess file edit (SecRuleRemoveByID something-or-other), but I’m sharing here in case an update to your Copyright add-on could also solve/prevent this in future.
Hope this helps.

Wow, never heard of that before. As far as I know, your server should have no idea what you’re saving into your database, especially a harmless string like
%current_year%.Can you ask them what about the string triggers that rule? Seems like they might just need to whitelist it in your case (there’s nothing dangerous about it at all).
