Manage Limit Login Protection (WebUI Method)
- Log into cPFence WebUI and select the server you are tuning.
- Browse to Tools & Utilities ➜ WP-AutoShield Bulk Tools.
- Choose Enable Limit Login to enforce rate limiting or Disable Limit Login if troubleshooting.
- Confirm the action; the UI updates each site's configuration (respecting the optional site selector).
- Leave the results window open until every site reports success.
Enabling this prevents brute-force attempts across all wp-login.php endpoints with one click.
Command Line (CLI) Method
- SSH into the WordPress host.
- Enable limit login:
cpfence --bulk-enable-wp-limit-login - Disable it if you need to allow testing:
cpfence --bulk-disable-wp-limit-login
Reapply the enable flag after maintenance so login protection stays consistent.
