GeoTargeting for WordPress will let you country-target your content based on users IP's and Geocountry Ip database

== Description ==

Based on [Maxmind GeoIP2](http://www.maxmind.com/?rId=timersys) data Geo Targeting plugin for WordPress will let you create dynamic content based on your users country.

With a simple shortcode you will be able to specify which countries are capable of seeing the content.

Compatible with [Wordpress Popups Plugin](https://wp.timersys.com/popups/?utm_source=geot-readme&utm_medium=link&utm_term=popus%20premium&utm_campaign=Popups%20premium). You can now geotarget your popups

If you use popular firewall services such as Cloudflare, Reblaze, Sucuri, Ezoic, Akamai or Clouways the plugin will auto detect real IP from users.

Now also compatible with *Cloudflare Geolocation*. Simple add define('GEOT_CLOUDFLARE',true); to your wp-config.php file to enable it!

Usage:
`[geot country="Argentina"] Messi is the best! [/geot]`
`[geot country="Portugal"] Cristiano ronaldo is the best! [/geot]`
`[geot exclude_country="Portugal"] This text is seeing by everyone except Portuguese people [/geot]`
