7 quick logins

    Invalid logins are being blocked ok but the quick login attempt repetitions do not appear to be trapped. Here’s what I see in the Visitors logs with 7 login attempts in the same minute from the same IP address. Should this sequence trigger a lockout? I’m running WP Super Cache. Could that be an issue?

    Hi,

    Yes, I guess this could be because of the cache.
    Could you try to disable the cache for a few minutes and see ?

    Regards
