"Email alerts on failed login attempts plus using the failed login attempt ip address finds any members on the forum using that ip address and lets the account owner know who it could be."

Is there a way you can add this feature when a person tries to reset the password by forgot password option?
Right now it send an email with the persons ip adress only. But it would be very nice to know which member could have been that tried to reset our password.

Is there gonna be an update soon? Do you think this feature will be added?

It seems as though this mod is not fully functional on my forum. I have everything checked:

But some users have been able to protect their accounts themselves while others have not. I currently have a BOT problem with one attempting to hack into accounts on my forum and this was our number one security measure. I'm unsure what to do about this. Are there any other permissions for this mod I am missing?

Those are the only settings for the mod.

Is it maybe possible to make the same thing possible only then for boards.
So on a specific boards the user needs to be on that certain IP else he/she cant get in that board? (this ip should only be editable by moderators)

You would help me very much if you could tell me if this is possible, and if zo how.

Thank a lot by now.

Because?

vbgamer45 · January 06, 2011, 02:34:34 PM

It's not built into the mod but you can do it but would have to code yourself.

Darkness_ · January 06, 2011, 02:43:36 PM

If I could I certainly would.

Is it ok if I can find something in your mod that I could use

vbgamer45 · January 06, 2011, 02:52:55 PM

Yeah you can use the mod for whatever you want on your own site.

Like others, I'm getting :

8: Undefined index: allowedips
File: Profile.php
Line: 589

v1.0.2.2 and SMF 1.1.12 (just updated to .13)

When the attempt threshold has been exceeded, is the account locked, or the IP that attempted to log in? I've been having a series of login attempts against all of my members over the last day or two from a bunch of different IPs. I don't want to inconvenience them by having them be locked out. I just want to prevent those IPs from attempted again.

vbgamer45 · February 14, 2011, 12:07:15 AM

Account is locked. If you have secure login link enabled they can override by clicking a link sent to their email account.

roryjsk · February 14, 2011, 09:59:05 AM

So it'll keep locking every time it happens?

vbgamer45 · February 14, 2011, 10:02:31 AM

Yes you can set it up in the settings area to configure when to lock and how long

I've just installed this mod manually, but none of the text labels are coming up? I've checked the $txt array and it's empty. I'm running SMF 1.1.7 - any idea what this could be caused by? I've placed the text in every Settings.english.php file I could find

Arantor · February 15, 2011, 05:06:40 AM

It should normally be in Modifications.english.php...

Cheers, works a charm now.

[Edit] I didn't read the instructions correctly $:-\$ my bad, it's always the little things!

vbgamer45 · June 11, 2011, 09:29:28 PM

Updated for SMF 2.0 final.

Kolya · June 12, 2011, 05:29:20 AM

Forgot to update the version number?
The version number on the archive is still the same (LoginSecurity1.0.2.2). Apparently so is the package info.
I have a version 1.0.2.2 installed that is from February this year. But the one I just downloaded is obviously newer.
