๐Setting Max Login Attempts
In the plugin dashboard, navigate to the โSettingsโ tab. Scroll down to the โApp Settingsโ. If you are a free user, you will use the โLocal Appโ section. If you are a premium user, you will use the โLimit Login Attempts Reloaded Cloud Appโ section. Look for โLockoutโ and the field for โallowed retriesโ. This setting will allow you to set how many times an IP address (bot or human) can attempt a login before they get locked out. By default, the allowed retries setting is set to 4. You are free to increase or decrease this. Please be aware that fewer attempts may increase the likelihood of legitimate admins and users to be locked out more frequently. However, if the amount of attempts is set too high, it might increase your brute force activity.
