Features:

  • Admin Manageable settings
  • Allow normal login attempts for a defined number called max limit
  • Block normal login after crossing the max limit
  • Start Captcha based login after crossing the max limit of normal logins
  • Re-start normal login once a successful login is made so that authenticated user need not to follow extra security
  • Clear unnecessary records from database using cron job after specified duration

More Information:

This module has two settings according to the need:

  define('MAX_ATTEMPTS', 5);
  define('DUMP_HOURS', 24);

First value is the maximum number of attempts that user can perform without captcha, please provide integer to increase or decrease.

Second Value is the number of hours after which you want to clear the attempts entries, e.g. as value is 24 hrs so when cron job will run it will remove all the entries entered 24 hrs ago or older.

Using this, you can define the number of maximum attempts allowed as normal login and a duration to dump the records i.e. after this duration, your normal login will restart for a particular ip address if no successful login was made in the duration. If user will make a successful login then there will be no longer captcha as long as another max attempts are violated for login.

This module has support for cron jobs too hence you can get the unnecessary entries cleated automatically from DB.

Upgrades:

Every package covers one year of free updates and technical support.
