Failed Login Email Alerts

AddonLogic Failed Login Email Alerts

About this Plugin

Tracks failed login attempts per IP address using WordPress transients. When the count exceeds the configured threshold within the time window, an alert email is sent to the site admin. A cooldown transient prevents sending duplicate alerts for the same IP during a sustained attack. All triggered alerts are logged in the admin with IP, attempt count, username, and timestamp.
