[resolved] Help! - Accidently Banned my dad :/ (3 posts)

    Well I've been spending the last couple days setting up my WordPress site, plugins, widgets, themes etc...
    Today I finished designing the Email sent for new users.
    I though I had it yesterday, but it had some alignment errors. Anyway, I had sent it to my Dads email as a test.
    I had the bright idea of deleting his account (its not like he signed in yet anyway) and resign him up so he would get the new, clean and finished welcome email.

    What I didn't realize was that removing him from the users list moved his I.P (and mine btw. 4 comps going through 1 router) and mail address to the blacklist.

    Now I can't remove the address from the blacklist.
    I tried modifying it. But it takes the modification and moves it down as a new additional. After trying this a couple times My blacklist is a bit of a mess.

    Sooo.... How do you unblacklist someone? So far I've tried going to Admin panel > Manage Tab > Registration logs delete and or modify existing item and hit "update blacklist"

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

    Are you using some kind of plugin for this? Because WordPress has no "Registration logs" or anything similar in it.

    Wow! I can't believe I didn't see that.
    Your right. I didn't realize that amongst the 30 plugins I downloaded, tried and deleted there was one still installed.
    It was definitely the culprit.
    (TimesToCome Stop Bot Registration)
    Uninstalled and soon to be deleted.

    Sorry for not checking for that myself, I should have known WordPress would be better setup than that.

    Thanks for your help!!!
