    I have been locked out of this website. I tried the suggestion from another thread to change the name of the plugin, which lets me log in, but as soon as I change it back I am logged out again. I looked in the database and did a search for my IP address and nothing was found. I have also added the PHP file whitelist-ip.php and added my IP address, but I am still denied when the plugin is active. I have had to remove the plugin all together for now which is bad because I noticed that the site was under attack with lots of IPs blocked by the firewall. What can I do?

    Hi @earrame

    I hope you are doing well today.

    Did you try also the Unlock Me feature? In the last Defender update, we implemented this feature and it is enabled by default:
    https://wpmudev.com/docs/wpmu-dev-plugins/defender/#unlock-me

    Additionally, you can use a VPN and from a different IP install Defender again and add your real IP to the allowlist.

    Kind Regards,
    Kris

    Yes, I did use the unlock function. I tried it a bunch of times. Each time I receive the email with the link and when I go to that link it just goes to the unlock me screen where I am to enter my user name again. In addition, in Chrome, the Admin isn’t resolving at all with Defender active.
