Description
Login Watchdog is the fourth of several NutsForPress plugins providing some essential features that WordPress does not offer itself or offers only partially.
Login Watchdog include these very useful functions for your every-day secure and protection of your WordPress website:
- Login Attempts Monitor: checks login attempts and blocks (temporarily o permanently) failed login attempts exceeding the limits defined
- Disable XML-RPC: disables XML-RPC protocol to prevent brute force attacks
- Disable Author Page: hides author archive page and hides user info via API REST, so that none can know author name by his ID
- Custom Login Errors: displays custom login errors instead of WordPress default
- Security Notification: notifies site owner on successful login, on change role, on user delete and on user temporary or permanent lock down
Login Watchdog is full compliant with WPML (you don’t need to translate any option value)
