Site Lockout Notification for WHITELISTED IP address

  • I’ve been doing a lot of work on a website this week, all through the WP dashboard, with my IP address added to the whitelist section.

    Over the past 3 days, I have received dozens of emails from the plugin with:
    Site Lockout Notification
    “too many attempts to access a file that does not exist”

    Because the IP address is whitelisted, I don’t actually get locked out, but why is this happening at all?? I am simply updating the pages via the dashboard. Another weird thing is that I only get these emails in the afternoon/evening, even though I have been working on the site since 7am this morning. And no, I’m not doing anything different in the afternoon.

    Any thoughts?

    Would you mind expanding on that? Not sure what you mean. I had to stop the notifications because the volume of emails I was getting was ridiculous. Thanks!

    me too. For me its the site’s own ip, as it refreshes cached pages. 250+ lockout notice emails this morning.
