    The site has been working before and i was able to goto wp-login or wp-admin with no problems. now i get 401 unauthorized everytime i try to get to the login page. i am using cloudflare and have whitelisted all my IPs both on cloudflare and on wordfence but i cannot reach the login page.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi @jjoannides

    The 401 Unauthorized response status code page is being generated by your hosting server and not related at all to our plugin as it doesn’t use that response code so you will need to ask your hosting provider to fix this.

    Hi,

    I thought the same thing, but when i did a complete uninstall of wordfence, it started working again.

    Thanks

    This just happened to me as well.

    One of the users on my site forgot their password, they went to reset it, I received an email notification from wordfence, and now our wp-login.php page throws a “401 Unauthorized” error for everyone, before even being able to login. I deactivated Wordfence and the error is now fixed. But I would like to reactive Wordfence again…. So any ideas on how to resolve this?
