  • I have been locked out. As an admin, what can I do to be able to login again without waiting for 60 minutes?

    What are you seeing when you say you are being locked out?
    Have you by any chance also enabled the Cookie Based Brute Force Prevention feature?

    Are you sure you are entering your correct IP address in the white list settings?
    This plugin gives you your IP address in the white list settings page and you can copy and paste that address into the box.

    When trying to access the admin pages (or the login page) are you using the special URL which the brute force feature requires you to use?
    If you are not then you won’t be able to access any admin pages.
    See this link to learn how that feature works:
