IMPORTANT NOTE!!!:

In order get BPS Pro 7.7 released as soon as possible we will not be updating the AutoRestore Blue Read Me help text in BPS Pro 7.7 and the AutoRestore Forum Guide as this would take another couple of days to complete. A Forum post has been created here: http://forum.ait-pro.com/forums/topic/bps-pro-7-7-new-autorestore-automation-help-information/ that explains all of the major changes to AutoRestore Automation in BPS Pro 7.7. We will release BPS Pro 7.8 as soon as possible with updated AutoRestore Blue Read Me help text, update Guides and other help information regarding AutoRestore as soon as possible.

2 New Dismiss Notices Added:
Brute Force Login page protection Dismiss Notice added: Displays a Notice with a link about additional Brute Force Login page protection code that can be added to BPS Pro Custom Code. Speed Boost Cache Code Dismiss Notice added: Displays a Notice with a link to get the Speed Boost Cache code that can be added to BPS Pro Custom Code.

Brute Force Login Page Protection code:
The success/fail ratio for the Brute Force Login page protection code was 95%/5% success/fail. We have decided not to make this code standard BPS root .htaccess file code and are using a Bonus Code Dismiss Notice so that this code is optional and not standard code. If you are already using this code and it is working fine on your site then copy and paste the code to this BPS Custom Code text box: CUSTOM CODE BRUTE FORCE LOGIN PAGE PROTECTION to save it permanently. BPS will no longer automatically add this code to the root .htaccess file as standard BPS code.

If you are seeing a 403 error when logging in or logging out of your website delete the code shown below from your root .htaccess file.

# BRUTE FORCE LOGIN PAGE PROTECTION
# Protects the Login page from SpamBots & Proxies
# that use Server Protocol HTTP/1.0 or a blank User Agent
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^(/wp-login\.php|.*wp-login\.php.*)$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} HTTP/1\.0$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PROTOCOL} HTTP/1\.0$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ – [F,L]
