    The last 3 days i am experiencing some brute attacks on my site. First i got some 300 emails from wordfence that someone is trying to log with incorret login, than i used the option “blok ip if username is not correct” . These is coming from Ip´s all over the world.After that i used another option to block humans if they exceed 15 pages per minute.Now the whole day every minute i m receiving a new email that someone is blocked.How to stop this ? To find the proper Ip and block them permanently ?

    Hi,

    Sounds like your site is under heavy attack. You can simply disable email alerts if you don’t want to get emailed every time a hacker attacks you.

    Regards,

    Mark.
