Use the power of the cloud and CDN to restrict access to your login page..
Using Cloudflare's Geolocation service, this super lightweight plugin restricts access to your login page, allowing access to only your chosen countries.
However, these plugins use your server to detect the IP and compare this to location.
This adds overhead to your site, takes up space on your server, and requires frequent updates to keep the IP list relevant..
Since we leverage Cloudflare's geolocation service, your server has to read the data, rather than compute and store it locally.
It assumes that one's WP site is running behind CloudFlare's proxy and that the pool of potential authorized users is not unlimited in other words, it assumes that one's WP site does not allow for unrestricted new user registration..
For the large class of WP sites that meet these two criteria, this well designed and well executed plugin is great way to add common sense network layer to WP's authentication security...
It keeps showing settings page where you are directed to go to network inside clouflare and activate IP Geolocation.
Thanks to the great support, I was made aware that I forgot that I'd changed CloudFlare.
