    Each time an user with an specific role, like editor. Fail with the password and he is out of the site for a while till he have acces again, it would be nice to receive an email. In order to know he is out and to give acces to te site again as soon as possible Some times they do not know what′s going on and they do not know we can give acces to the site without to wait till the security time of the block finish.

    thanks

  • Hi,
    Thanks for your suggestion, however please allow me to make sure I understand you correctly. First, you can adjust the number of login trials before locking users out from “Lock out after how many login failures” so that valid users don’t get locked out easily. Once a user is locked out he/she will get a screen telling him/her that the login attempt was locked out, so they will know about that immediately. At the same an email will be sent to all the addresses added in “Where to email alerts” option, if “Alert when someone is locked out from login” was checked.

    Let me know if I didn’t get it right,
    Thanks.

    Now, we could receibe an email each time a users is locked out, i believe. But a regular user like subscriptor can be locked out and I do not really care. But if a user with an special role is out (like one editor or author), real time information is need in order to be able to fix the issue ASAP.

    In that way, i could give acces before they realice they are out and keep working.

    thanks.

    I understand now that your feature request is “Control locked out email notifications based on user role”, I’ll log this to our team, although I’m not sure if this can be seen in one of the plugin’s upcoming releases or not, but all suggestions are evaluated by our dev team and considered seriously.

    Thanks.
