Hey Tareq,

I appreciate your decision. In my case I would like to change this behaviour. Do you think this is possible via add_filter or add_action?

With the help of the plugin weglot we can offer our docs in four different languages.

Best regards

Hello,
I have the same problem. When I try to create a label it tells me:
“Could not create label – Bitte geben Sie ein gültiges Sendungsdatum an.”

I am sure that the connection is right, because if I change the username or the password the error message changes.

I would love the get a hint how to fix this.
Best regards
Christoph

Hi Ovidiu,

yes it is right that one part of the article is the explanation how to use the fail2ban plugin.

But the other part is a general explanation how to use fail2ban. Therefore if for example kranzoky gets a lot of requests but no logins this should be visible in some log files. Then define a rule for example with a very high count number to block and the problem can be solve to.

Best regards

Hi kranzoky,

it is very easy to protect wordpress with fail2ban. I wrote a german article about that on https://www.ionas-server.com/blog/fail2ban-schutz-vor-brute-force-angriffen/. But here is the short version in english:

0) install this plugin wp-fail2ban on your wordpress instance.
1) install fail2ban on your linux server
2) create a filter for wordpress “wordpress.conf”. You can download the file under: https://plugins.svn.www.ads-software.com/wp-fail2ban/trunk/wordpress.conf
3) add the filter to the jail.conf of fail2ban and then activate it.

If you don’t understand the german blog entry. Please write me an email.

One important hint: don’t forget to “ignore your own ip” in fail2ban. Otherwise you ban yourself very fast. ??

Best regards
Christoph
