    Just installed Loginizer. BruteForce settings not working. The same IP is still registering Wrong Password attempts continuously every minute, according to WP ActivityLog, even when Blacklisted. Is that normal?

    Hi,

    Sorry for the delay in response.

    We checked this and found the following details :

    It seems the failed attempts you see in other Logs plugins is actually a blocked attempt by Loginizer but WordPress does not have the option to mark the login attempt as blocked it has only failed option hence this confusion.

    We have requested WordPress team to add a “Blocked” status so it makes clear the the attempt was blocked and not failed attempt.

    We will also work on improving the process that the blacklisted IP should not be even able to attempt and should simply not be able to post the login credentials.

    Thank you for bringing this issue to our notice.

    We will make the changes to improve this asap.

    Hi team,

    Great work with the plugin!

    As mentioned by the OP, my site’s facing similar issues with blocked bots continuing their brute force attempts despite being blacklisted. This adds a significant load to the server CPU and affects the site performance.

    Your quote caught my eye.

    We will also work on improving the process that the blacklisted IP should not be even able to attempt and should simply not be able to post the login credentials.

    This would be a great addition to it.`

    Is there an estimated time for when this feature would be included?

    Hi,

    We are working on it but we do not have an exact ETA. We will try to add it soon.
