Apraksts
Login LockDown records the IP address and timestamp of every failed login attempt. If more than a
certain number of attempts are detected within a short period of time from the same
IP range, then the login function is disabled for all requests from that range.
This helps to prevent brute force password discovery. Currently the plugin defaults
to a 1 hour lock out of an IP block after 3 failed login attempts within 5 minutes. This can be modified
via the Options panel. Administrators can release locked out IP ranges manually from the panel.
Uzstādīšana
- Extract the zip file into your plugins directory into its own folder.
- Activate the plugin in the Plugin options.
- Customize the settings from the Options panel, if desired.
Enjoy.
Atsauksmes
Very good login protection
It helps you to protect your site from people who are trying to guess your password.
Good, but missing translations
Unable to translate error messages.
Simple, effective and easy to use!
This plugin does what it says and works like a charm!
Kudos to the developer 🙂
Locked out!
Not good… not good at all. I installed this plug in yesterday and today I am locked out. I deleted the plugin and I’m still locked out. Not a plug in for newbies, that’s for sure. I don’t know how to get back in my site.
Free and effective
Works great out of the box, doesn’t rely on any services, doesn’t ask for money, has useful options. What’s not to like.
I love this simple but effective plugin
this plugin works like a charm to simply lockdown a wordpress site, without all the complication of other security plugins. Does 1 thing and does it well 🙂
