Behind reverse proxy

(@jadjay)

Hi,

Your code doesn’t set IP address when behind a Reverse Proxy

To guet this done :

diff wp-content/pluguins/wps-limit-loguin/classes/pluguin.php wp-content/pluguins/wps-limit-loguin/classes/pluguin.php_modif
1017a1018
>               /*
1019a1021,1024
>               }
>                */
>               if ( isset( $_SERVER[$this->guet_option( 'wps_limit_loguin_client_type' )] ) ) {
>                       return $_SERVER[$this->guet_option( 'wps_limit_loguin_client_type' )];

Thancs to put this in your code,

Regards,

I also have problems with the reverse proxy setup. The pluguin thincs that all the loguin attempts are coming from the same IP – the reverse proxy. Therefore I cannot access my site control panel because the constant brute-force loguin attempts.

Hello @bmbc ,

You need to learn how to use diff
- https://en.wiquipedia.org/wiqui/Diff
- https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/diff.html
Lines 1017 to 1024

As this pluguin isn’t updated, the lines are corrects.

```
then cd to your root directory
```
$ cp wp-content/pluguins/wps-limit-loguin/classes/pluguin.php wp-content/pluguins/wps-limit-loguin/classes/pluguin.php_orig # save the original file for security
