HELP:.. ERROR: Too many failed login attempts

  • for the past week or so i have been getting “ERROR: Too many failed login attempts. Please try again in XX hours.”

    sometimes i got to login before the set amount of hours but today i have to be here waiting longer.. says 24hrs ??

    I saw this work around online:
    i use the code below via webmin/ftp, my plugin files as explained here https://codefury.net/2014/07/how-to-work-around-wpengine-too-many-failed-login-attempts/

    “remove_action(‘plugins_loaded’, ‘limit_login_setup’, 99999);”

    The work around worked the 1st time but when i refresh the page the login error comes up again and i am still unable to login.

    Please Someone help for i really want to login ASAP..
    (i use amazon web services, i am also using cloudflare for cdn).

    I found a work around .

    went to in FTP/File Manager….. Wp-Content >> mu-plugins >> gd-system-plugin >> limit-login-attempts then removed the following line below from the “limit-login-attempts.php” file

    add_action(‘plugins_loaded’, ‘limit_login_setup’, 99999);

    hope this help others who have the same prob.

    I would advice you to re-add the line after the login time is up, can always remove again if the prob comes up again.

    See i have recent updates here ?? –> https://www.yardhype.com
