    Paul – First off THANK YOU for this plugin.

    I use it combined with another plug in that send me an email when some attempts to log in and fails.

    My question: Since I have renamed my login page do you think this means they are still finding it? The emails are telling me what name they are trying to log in with?

    Thanks,

    Bob

    Explanation: Someone failed to login to your site. If you are getting too many of these messages, it is likely your site is under a password guessing brute-force attack [1]. You can disable the failed login alerts from here [2]. Alternatively, you can consider to install a firewall between your website and your visitors to filter out these and other attacks, take a look at XXXXXXXXX XXXX [3].
