Please update plugin. This plugin is not storing direct IP address. It is storing hashed IP.

I’d say that it doesn’t matter if for User or Admin…one should not be able to track users’ behavoiour by viewing IP addresses.

OK, thank you.
So the hashed IP of a User that tries to log in 5 times would be 5 times a different value…right?

We can’t identify IP. Because we are storing as hash. If user tries 5 times, it will update same hash position in DB table.
Thank you

And if it would not be the update that is stored but different hashes each time, then ther plugin would not work, because you could not tell if the same user has tried to log on several times, and then you could not limit the login attempts…right?
