Login page and attempts issue

    Hi,

    I’ve changed my login page but I still get a lot of attempts daily. How would they know about new login url if it is a random name?

    Also, I’m having difficulties logging in with new users that I create. When I try to login with a new user, login screen shows wrong password error even though the password is correct. After 3 attempts it locks me out and I can’t try again even though I remove my IP from blocked IP list.

    Please help me resolve these issues.

    Huge thanks!

    Thanks,

    I’ve implemented changes described on that page.

    /xmlrpc.php page started showing 404 page and I started seeing this code in htaccess file

    # BEGIN All In One WP Security
    #AIOWPS_PINGBACK_HTACCESS_RULES_START
    <Files xmlrpc.php>
    <IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
    Require all denied
    </IfModule>
    <IfModule !mod_authz_core.c>
    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
    </IfModule>
    </Files>
    #AIOWPS_PINGBACK_HTACCESS_RULES_END

    Is this supposed to fix multiple notifications that someone is trying to pick my password? Should I change my login url again?

    As for login attempts, I still can’t login when I use new users. I know I enter correct password, but I always get this respose https://prntscr.com/f717ym

    Please advice.

    Thanks!

    In regards to your comment.

    Yes it should stop many login attemps. You should not have to change your login URL again. However if you wish too then go ahead. It would not hurt.

    In regards to the following comment.

    Can you provide more information.
