You are temporarily locked out – everytime!

  • I have a protected page in wordpress with a password, every time I try to access it although I use the correct password (100% correct), wordfence keeps locking me out

    You are temporarily locked out
    You have been temporarily locked out of this system. This means that you will not be able to sign-in or use several other features that may compromise security. Please try back in a short while.
    Return to the site home page
    Attempt to return to the admin login page (you may still be locked out)

    There is no reason for this error I am not trying to actually login to wordpress backend I just wanna access a protected page but its not letting me. I dont have the Limited Login Attempts plugin installed, I have disabled the Theme My Login plugin as well as WordPress Social Login plugin, issue still there.

  • Hi ClickCOSMO,

    I have not seen a report of this issue before. I tried to recreate the error and could not. Everything seemed to work as expected.

    You are using the WordPress built-in functionality for password protecting a post? What is the current status of the Wordfence Firewall?

    You might set the Firewall to “Learning Mode” and try again. Not sure if that will help or not. Let me know.

    I have this same issue – will post on separate thread.
