Hi joris1969,

In order to access your site you can try to turn off the plugin by renaming its folder. Then log in, go to the “plugins” page and rename the plugin folder back. Activate the plugin and go to its settings page. See if your IP address is listed in the lockouts log. If it is, remove it from there so you can access the site again via the login page. Also it would be helpful to see your settings page. Can you create and share a screenshot?

Hi bvhprods,

Try to disable WP Super Cache first and see if it helps. Please let us know.

Hi bvhprods,

Here’s a couple of steps to try and solve the issue:

Please make sure you browser’s passwords manager doesn’t auto-enter incorrect login information.

Make sure you don’t cache the login pages using a caching plugin. Try to turn off other security plugins you might have and test on another browser or incognito browser.

Lastly you should always open the login page using the correct URL, i.e. if your site’s URL starts with https://www you want to open the login page with https://www.

Hey readyplayerone,

As mentioned in the plugin’s description, this option is available to the CloudFlare users only so please make sure you use CF. If you do, you need to specify the two-letter country codes you want to allow in the plugin’s settings, like this: https://prnt.sc/ileyk2

Hi readyplayerone,

Just open your .htaccess file in the root folder of the site and remove everything between these tags from it:

# BEGIN Protection against DDoS

and

# END Protection against DDoS

Hi kolshix,

You don’t have to add anything here. The plugin limits login attempts directly from wp_signon().

You can find the error code/text here: $user_signon ($user_signon->get_error_code() and $user_signon->get_error_message());

Hi Dee,

Try this:

get_post_type() == 'post' || get_query_var('post_type') == 'post'

Also check the “Use ‘wp_reset_query’ fix” checkbox.

Thank you, Chad!

Thank you!

Hi Dandy,

The plugin always uses $_SERVER[‘HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR’] if it is not empty. It looks like the issue is somewhere else.

Hi lgdelai,

You need to use has_tag instead of is_tag.

Hi David,

Thank you for pointing this out. That plugin is so obsolete, it doesn’t make sense to use it. It also looks like we need to remove support for it from our plugin.
