Thanks AGAIN to JohnnyShadow and to togar29 for bulk zip...
This is for the peeps who have installed this plugin and may have encountered the same issue: same ip trying to login to my admin but the attempts were 30-40 minutes apart so the plugin did not ban that ip nor could I add to blocked ips. This is a quick fix to increase the "15 minute" max default the plugin has...
Magic Button :
1. Open your hosts cpanel
2. Scroll to "Domains"
3. Open "Addon Domains"
4. Go to the "Document Root" of the domain you have installed the plugin on and double click to open
5. Check to see if you are in the correct document root (icon of little "home"/public_html/yourdomain.com) and all of the files/folders/etc to the right belong to that domain
6. Double click "wp-content"
7. Double click "plugins"
8. Double click "wpdeadbolt"
9. On "PHP wf-ln-gui.php" highlight and click "Code Editor"
10. Code Editor popup box and click "Edit"
11. Scroll down to line 204 and replace:
for ($i = 2; $i <= 15; $i++) {
with
for ($i = 2; $i <= 45; $i++) {
increase "bruteforce attempts within 15 minutes" to "bruteforce attempts within 45 minutes" or increase "15" with the number of minutes you would like to increase it to.
12. "Save Changes" and "Close"
13. ENJOY
14. ps - you can also edit to increase ban length (Line 219)-BUT- you also must add the same change to "PHP wf-ln-ajax.php" in "Code Editor"(Line 62)
