[...] Safer Cookie (rated 8 out of 10): Ties the WordPress session cookie to the user’s IP address which ensures the cookie can’t be used to access the admin panel from another computer. [...]

I (stupicly) installed and activated the plugin, then read about the staitc/dynamic IP!
I cannot login anymore “Too many failed login attempts. Please try again in xx minutes.”
How do I overcome this problem??

I allready deleted the safer-cookies directory in Content/plugins with FTP, but still no login possible.

My bad, but how do I solve this???

Found my issue. The site where I was testing the new version also had the “Admin SSL” plugin activated and that trumped the safer cookies plug-in.

Thanks for the help.

Still works for me on 2.8.6 (and the current dev. snapshot of 2.9).

However, I looked at the WP source code and it seems that the authentication algorithms have changed (very) slightly, maybe that’s tripping up the plugin in your case. I’ll upload an update that integrates the algorithm changes; perhaps that’ll help.

I hope that I am mistaken, but I don’t believe that the plug-in is working with version WordPress 2.8.6.

When I activate it as an admin in version 2.8, I am logged out and have to log in again, but when I activate it in version 2.8.6, I am not logged out and I am still able to use cookie information from another machine to change who I am logged in as.

Again, I hope it is just user error, but as you have said, it is pretty simple to use, and has always worked in the past.

It’s possible, but that would be a whole new plugin.
