  Recently, a message on WordPress pops up about 50% of the time I try to log in. The message is titled: ‘WordPress Login Temporarily Blocked’ and it does not let me log into the dashboard until the block expires.

  What is causing this and how do I fix it?

  Hi @ielrblog, these forums are for the free sites using our managed hosting service, which can be quite different from running your own WordPress installation at another host.

  You’ll likely get the most help contacting support for your security plugin — they can likely help you sort out where that’s coming from.

  Otherwise, here’s a link to the correct forums for self-managed sites:

  Good luck!
