 * An Update,
 * OK, I am not sure what is going on but I just check the site again and tried 
   to sign on using a different browser (Firefox), and this time instead of getting
   a 404 error I had a WordPress message to update the database. Once this was done
   I am now able to sign into the admin using the All in one Cookie page.
 * The last time I had this issue, I also tried to sign in using a different browser
   and it did NOT work I also had the 404 error.
 * So maybe panic over
    Thanks JohnW

 * Hello,
 * Just updated All in One Security and seemed to be fine, then updated WordPress
   to version 6, and now I have the initial problem back again… ie 404 error when
   I try to access the Admin page using the cookie ref.
 * So what now???

 * Before i try and update your plugin again, should i be doing something else to
   try and not have a repeat of the issues i had last time???
 * Should i update WordPress first???
 * Thanks

 * Ok,
 * Since i raised the post i have been doing some further investigations and have
   managed to get access to the client domain hosting site and now I have replaced
   the plugin folder for this plugin with a version that was backed up about a week
   ago.
 * So now i can sign on again using the Allin one Cookie access page therefore in
   answer to your questions
 * Rename login page is NOT enabled
    Cookie-based brute force IS enabled but worked
   fine up until the last plugin update.

 * Ok, I believe i have resolved this issue, now.
 * I made doubly sure i had removed all aspects of W3 Total Cache, cleared Browser
   History etc etc, and also changed my IP via a VPN I did finally manage to get
   into the site and sign on with the All in One Security Captcha feature.
 * And all looks fine now, but need to find an alternative to W3 Total Capture as
   the more i read about it the more i am troubled by the extent to which is invades
   the Word Press set up.
 * Thanks to all that assisted.

 * Ok, I believe this is sorted now.
 * After making sure that all of W3 Total Cache plugin was removed from the server,
   clearing all ache etc etc, changing my Local IP via a VPN i managed to get back
   into the back end of the site via the Captcha log in
 * So all clear again

 * All,
 * Ok i have got past this process now, by disabling a couple of plugins.
 * I disabled (renamed) W3 Total Cache as it appeared to be linked with the upgrade
   issues in the first place.
 * Then the All in one security plugin stopped me from signing on as the captcha
   feature must have been impacted by removal of the cache plugin somehow…not sure
   how or why, now i am locked out of my site if this plugin is allowed to run.
 * Thx

 * Hello,
 * Based on the last recommendation i renamed the All in one Security plugin.
 * so now i can sign into the back end. which is great thanks, but i now need to
   know how to effectively stop the plugin from disconnecting me as soon as i try
   to activate it again ??
 * Thx

 * HI,
 * Thanks for that, i tried that and yes the Data Base upgrade seems to have been
   completed successfully
 * However, although the site still appears to work OK, i can no longer sign into
   the admin page, this was configured to use the All In One Security captcha feature,
   and now i have been locked out….
 * Thx

 * Hello,
 * Further to my first post,
 * I do have access to a Data Base back up of the site generated from the All in
   One Security plugin.
 * I also have a backup generated by Updraft Plus.

 * Thank You for your response. I have looked around and cannot find anything that
   suits my purpose at present.
 * One observation i have made is that your Plugin is the only facility i have found
   that converts images within the text to be transferred into Word, which is extremely
   important in what i am trying to do.
    One area i am struggling with is the editing
   capabilities, my Word document is basically a lot of tables, and if i need to
   edit the table within WordPress it will not allow me to alter the table in any
   way… is this correct?
 * I cannot even delete the whole table and start again? i have to delete the Post
   and recreate it it from scratch.
 * thx
 * John
