Explain: Do not activate protection for WordPress/Login

    I’m very interested in this system, but when I test it, in the email note letting me know of recent activity I get a warning:
    Do not activate protection for WordPress/Login
    The system includes checkboxes to protect —
    Standard Login Form
    Standard Lost Password Form
    Standard Registration Form
    So I am confused about whether I should check those boxes — especially the “Standard Login Form”; and about what happens if I do check to protect.
    Hope someone can explain the options and consequences before I take the system out of test mode.

    Hi,
    If you get the “Do not activate protection for WordPress/Login” warning in the notification email, it means that GoodBye Captcha can’t properly detect if the login request is initiated by a human or by a spam bot. Usually this happen when there is a misconfiguration on the server side and the plugin can’t communicate with the server.

    What can happen if you ignore the warning message and enable protection for login form?

    If you whitelisted your IP address and you’ll try to login from that IP, you’ll be able to do it. Otherwise you’ll be locked out.

    Please send me your login url through https://www.goodbyecaptcha.com/contact/ and I’ll have a look to see what’s going on over there.
