Beschreibung
Holographic Login Shield helps protect the WordPress login area from repeated failed logins, automated abuse and common account-discovery behaviour.
The plugin is designed to stay focused. It adds practical login hardening without replacing the WordPress admin area, adding unnecessary front-end assets or sending free-plugin security logs to an external service.
Free features include configurable failed-login lockouts, an automatic permanent IP block threshold, local allowed and blocked IP address lists, Cloudflare-aware visitor IP detection, a paginated recent activity log, CSV log export, log retention cleanup, generic login errors, XML-RPC control, Application Password control, optional author archive blocking, a hidden bot trap and optional throttled failed-login email alerts.
Allowed IP addresses can be added manually or with the Add My IP button. Blocked IP addresses can be added manually and are also populated automatically when the permanent blocking threshold is reached. Both lists remain local to your WordPress site.

FAQ
-
Does this block brute-force login attempts?
-
Yes. The plugin can lock out repeated failed login attempts from the same IP address and username combination. You can configure the failed attempt limit, attempt window, lockout length and automatic permanent IP block threshold.
-
What does the permanent IP block setting do?
-
It automatically adds an IP address to the local blocked IP list after that IP reaches the configured failed-login threshold within the attempt window. Set the value to 0 if you want to disable automatic permanent blocking.
-
Can I allow my own IP address?
-
Yes. Add your IP address to the allowed IP list manually or use the Add My IP button on the settings page. Allowed IP addresses bypass local lockouts, automatic permanent blocking and the local block list.
-
Can I remove a blocked IP address?
-
Yes. Delete the IP address from the blocked IP box and save the settings.
-
Does the free plugin send login logs to Holographic Plugins?
-
No. The free plugin stores login security logs locally in your WordPress database. It does not send those logs to Holographic Plugins.
-
Can I disable XML-RPC?
-
Yes. You can disable XML-RPC from the plugin settings if your site does not need it.
-
Can I disable Application Passwords?
-
Yes. The plugin can disable WordPress Application Password authentication if your site does not need external application access.
-
Can I export the login log?
-
Yes. Site administrators can export recent login activity as a CSV file from the plugin settings page.
