    Hi,

    Since v1.1.6 a new function was introduced. The tracking of blocked users on your backend.

    If you enable this feature on the Home tab every hour a list of IP addresses that were blocked on logging in to your backend will be send to a central server.

    I do now know which site is sending which IP addresses so this is anonymous.

    I would like to see if it is a viable solution to use these ip addresses and further protect your backend by also blocking rogue ip addresses even if you haven’t blocked the country the visitor is from.

    But first I need as many sites as possible to send back the info. So if you have no objections in sending ip addresses of rogue users please set the option “Allow tracking” to on!

    Not much yet but not many users have enabled this function yet!

    How much load on USER (my) server? I think you’re talking about yours?

    Thanks, MTN

    I renamed wp-login.php, this appears to have almost 100% blocked all brute force hack attack attempted logins and I thus have NOTHING reporting in my Logging for Back End.

    Thus, I’m of no use here, correct?

    Let me know.

    Thanks, MTN

    Hi,

    If you don’t have any backend hits (because for instance you renamed the wp-login.php file) than the tracking option is not of much use
