Hi Elyssa,
Do you have another browser you can try to confirm the problem? If you suspect Wordfence is the culprit, you can rename the WF folder. Here’s how: The easiest way to solve this problem immediately is to simply rename the Wordfence folder in your WordPress installation. You can do that as follows:
Connect to your server using the method your normally use to upload files. Most people either use FTP or SFTP to do this.
Rename the Wordfence directory (or folder if you prefer). If your site has the standard WordPress structure, you can do this by simply renaming the following folder: wp-content/plugins/wordfence/
Let us know if that gets you back in.

I was in my FTP with Godaddy. Is it the wordfence.php that needs to be renamed? I cannot rename the entire folder though maybe Godaddy can?
Thanks for the quick response!

Yes, the main Wordfence folder needs to be renamed.

I can login on Chrome but not safari. I haven’t yet renamed the file.
If you can log in successfully on Chrome, then I don’t think Wordfence is blocking you. Wordfence’s messages to blocked users show the reason they were blocked, instead of just a “not found” page. When you are logged in using Chrome, you might want to check if you have other security plugins active which may be trying to hide the login page.
