• I see 16 blocks set in the past 3 days. That’s good! I look at my failed login attempts log from another plugin I have, the Sucuri Security Plugin, and I see those attempts that came in resulting in blocks (date, time, IP, attempt name/pass)… still good…

    Then I see THOUSANDS of other attempts that weren’t blocked at all. That’s BAD.

    50 attempts in a 2 minute span from the same IP is the pattern… I see dozens of IPs running 50 attempts getting through this plugin. So they are using some other form of login attempt that this plugin isn’t protecting anymore.

    Hopefully the author can update this to the current WP version.
