Locked myself (my IP) out

    Hi,

    is there a way to unblock an IP adress?
    I locked my own IP adress out while trying to change my user credentials.
    Becaus of autofill I gave the wrong credentials too often, so my IP is blocked.

    I tried to disable the plugin, but the 403 error persists.

    Even using a neutral .htaccess file via FTP did not work.

    Hope you can help.

    Thanks in advance

    There should be a way to unblock your IP but you would need to ask the developers of the plugin that has actually locked you out. My plugin does not use 403 errors to block IPs after too many login attempts, so it must be some other security plugin you have installed that is doing this to you.

    Try logging in from another IP, maybe use your phone (on your mobile data, not wifi), then you can deactivate that other plugin that is causing this issue.
