Hello, mvandemar!
I re-installed WP, just as I did last time (with the difference that this time during the installation I changed MySQL database tables names to something other than “wp_”)
I installed “Login LockDown 1.5” as you advised. Then I added “WP Security Scan” plugin.
This time there is no problem. If I lock out my IP, I can NOT log in.
I DONT KNOW what went wrong last time, but since you mentioned that in the new “Login LockDown 1.5” you fixed an issue where locking out even on invalid usernames was not functioning as intended, there is possiblility that that was the cause of problems…. because I indeed was using function “Lockout Invalid Usernames” last time.
Whatever the cause, thanks for updating Login LockDown.
Cheers
