Same issue on my site - this has been ongoing from about the last 7 days. One way I was able (I think) to partially resolve is by blocking all foreign IP addresses (we do all of our business with North...

Update: They are attempting to log in via xmlrpc.php, not wp-login.php (check your apache access logs).

Too bad some of these ISPs don't work a deal with Wordfence to get a list of the IP addresses that have been auto-banned from login. Surely that list would be 99.9% compromised mom and pop computers...

I haven't had problems before with default 256 setting and 96 which is something I usually set. But really don't have a clue how much server can grant (how can I test or where to see it?), because it...

@ aigarinsh, go to the Wordfence Options page and click the link at the bottom: "Test your WordPress host's available memory" That should show you what php.ini will let you have, then test the typical...

As I've posted in other threads, I usually resort to using .htaccess to only allow access to wp-login.php from a few trusted IP addresses. As for the xmlrpc.php attack, that's not a login attempt. It's...

I suspect that Apache 2.4 is what's causing it. I've already tried disabling my sections of the htaccess (such as "Rickroll Attackers"), but it still isn't serving the homepage cached.

Okay, I've disabled Falcon Engine, and when I try to enable it, it thinks I'm using Nginx + PHP-FPM, even though I'm using Apache + PHP-FPM. This isn't working!
