Andrew, thanks for your answer.

OK, so to be clear, if there is a BF attack that is successful against wp-admin or wp-login, then it will also be successful against a password protected wp-admin folder? What if that password protection is from cPanel?

What are the _server_ level protections? Like monitoring packets and closing down IP blocks?

Thanks again!

I get that part, and use a password manager and really strong passwords. I’m just trying to understand the advice of why adding the additional layer stops the BF attacks. It would seem that if the program guessed one password that it would just start working on the second one.

In that case, it would seem that limiting login attempts would be a far better mitigation.

I was able to upload an MP4 of 135.9MB, but ones closer to 500MB do not appear in the media library even though they do appear in the uploads folder when viewed with an FTP or cPanel.

So I tried that. Used cyberduck to download the hidden .htaccess file that was at the root. Opened it with sublime text, saved the original, made the edit.

Opened an incognito window in Chrome and couldn’t open the site because it ‘gave too many redirects’.

Overwrote with the original .htaccess and it opened fine.

Then I tried to add the two lines:

RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]

to the original .htaccess file and that also didn’t work.

So for now I’m looking at a pdf viewer that doesn’t view pdfs through https?

Should I look for another solution? This has worked great up until this point.

That selector will allow me to move the image with float, but the size doesn’t change.

Hmm.

Thanks.

OK, so .logotype-img is the correct selector, I just used float to move it to the right. Any idea how to get the image to fill that space? I tried using background-size: cover; to no avail.
