Hi

I’m not using Cloudfare.

And these login attempts just keep coming. It’s REALLY frustrating.

The list of logins that can’t be blocked has now grown to:
domain_zone
domain_dot_zone
domain
domainzone
domain.zone

Matt R – do you have any idea what’s going on?

thanks
Mariette

Hello Matt

This seems to be a wider problem.

Everyday I am getting these login attempts from login, domain_dot_zone and domain_zone, even though they are blocked.

These login attempts aren’t brute force as such – usually only one of each, and often coming at the same time.

Do you have any thoughts?

thanks

Hello again Matt

I am still getting a failed login attempt using ‘login’, despite moving to the end of the list, so that wasn’t the issue. Nothing recently for domain_dot_zone or domain_zone but these are intermittent anyway.

Can you suggest anything else?

thanks

Hi again

Yesterday I added the username login to the list and this hasn’t been blocked either so there must be something else going on.

I’m wondering if it could be because I added these to the beginning of the list rather than scrolling to add to the end? Just in case, I’ll try moving them and keep an eye on it…

all the best

Hi Matt

The logins were exactly as typed (no braces). Could the underscore character be causing the issue?

Hi

Just to add it to your list, the set-up isn’t working for Fasthosts hosting either.

Mariette

They are showing as Disabled in the settings too – that’s why I am confused. I’ve been going through the sites and clicking ‘Enable’ but perhaps I don’t need to do that…?

Is that why Audit Log Statistics are disabled too?

thanks
Mariette

Thanks Lorro
Do you have any idea why this has just started happening?

Hello

I have just discovered I have exactly the same problem. Was so relieved to find your thread and realise it wasn’t just me!

I have gone to the database and deleted the meta_value, which worked, but I was wondering if I should actually be deleting the whole row of the table?

thanks
Mariette

Hello Harish
Thank you for your support. I have since had other issues (eg, unable to upload images to Media Library, unable to run P3 Profiler to check plugin memory use) so I think there is something bigger going on. I will see if I can get to the bottom of these other issues before I bother you with the mc4wp problem as I think they may be related…
many thanks
Mariette

Hi Danny

Thanks for your help. To answer your questions:

– no error message
– see error log info below
– PHP 5.6.14
– /wp-admin/admin.php?page=mailchimp-for-wp-forms

When I install the log viewer I get a variety of messages. Can I email the full log to you? It includes stuff like:

Notice: The called constructor method for WP_Widget is deprecated since version 4.3.0! Use

__construct()

instead….

Warning: array_map(): An error occurred while invoking the map callback…

Fatal error: Uncaught exception ‘Exception’ with message ‘There is no form with ID 0, perhaps it was deleted?’…

many thanks
Mariette

Thank you Michael. Good to hear that you think it might be possible, and please do let me know if happen to find a solution!

best wishes
Mariette

Haha – no problem at all. And thanks for the compliment!!

Hello Yorman

Sorry to tell you that I am English not French (well, half English – my mother is Dutch!) and the website was installed with the English (UK) version. I always use this and haven’t had this problem before now.

I’ll do as you say and ignore (although I have already restored all 662 files through the Sucuri Dashboard)and wait for your upgrade, unless you have any other suggestions in the meantime.

many thanks
