    Hello,

    first of all – thank you for developing this wordpress plug in
    it is great
    the join/register process works fine
    and the mail registration is perfect one both side (email user and wp admin)
    the user registration inside WP works perfect
    Here is the bug :
    when i try to log in enter log and pass then click log in button :
    the log in panel freeze
    only the little “processing” animation move
    so i CAN’T log in !!!
    You can dl a screenshot here : http://ul.to/n1c5zq96
    Please help : i don’t want to change this login plug in cause this one can be perfect without this bug.

    Regards

    Hi apixel,

    I’ve been getting this in the past few days too, so I checked the server response. In my case, the server is replying with 406 Not Acceptable – the server doesn’t think the browser will accept its reply. That’s rare, but apparently it can happen when a host beefs up its security. I’ve seen a huge increase in hacking attempts over the past 6 months, so that sounds likely.

    Haven’t resolved this yet, the order I’ll be trying solutions in is:
    a) Contact host, see if they can resolve it (on shared hosting, this may not be possible);
    b) Try other plugins that *may* send a request more like the wp-login.php one;
    c) See if the code of LWA or the alternatives can be tweaked – think we’re looking at sending extra ‘Accept’ headers (or maybe the developer could take a look at that?);
    d) Switch hosting.

    I’ll post back when I have this resolved. If you manage to fix it in the meantime, please likewise let us all know how.

    Okay, not a generic fix I’m afraid – my host had added custom WP-specific checks for security purposes and told me how to work around those. So the real answer may well be, “Contact your host.”

    However, that may not be exactly what has happened in your case, so these two fixes may be worth trying as an alternative:
