    Dear,

    thanks for this plugin, it’s famous !

    But, I noted that people (Ru,UK, etc…) found the specific URL to connect
    I noted this trouble thanks to Wordfence that notified me false login attemps, I don’t know how people can find it…

    Is there an error or something wrong in the configuration ?

    Thanks

    Hi!

    It depends on your configuration. Do you see all those attempts on Activity tab? Did you configure Custom login page?

    Dear, thanks

    – Yes I configured the Custom login page
    – In the Cerber Activity tab, I noted a lot of Vérification reCAPTCHA failed (robot attack ?)
    – In the Wordfence Activity, I noted an access to the Custom page (secret) with a failed login user from avril 18, 2017, 5:11 to avril 21, 2017, 8:15 (around a test every 1 ou 2 mintues). after 4 days try to find a the login name, it stops !
    – This the second time (with another website) they find the wp-login custom, strange ?

    thanks again

    That’s normal nowadays. Hackers and bots constantly try to find entrances to websites, perform brute force attacks and do other illegal stuff. So, it’s OK, the plugin mitigates all those attempts very well.
