Hello,

Thank you for contacting us about your WordPress login being temporarily disabled. This often happens when our servers are blocking an attempted Brute force attack. This is explained in more detail in our guide WordPress wp-login.php brute force attack. It includes steps to regain access to your WordPress Admin.

Our security rules block login attempts for 15 minutes after a failed login attempt, so after you put these .htaccess rules in place, wait 15 minutes, then try to login again.

Let us know if you have any further questions.

Thank you,
John-Paul
