  1. SiteGuard WP Plugin 1.8.10Latest

    • Login Lock: fixed the lock never engaging when the WordPress time zone was behind the database server’s time zone (for example, WordPress set to UTC and MySQL to JST).
    • Admin Page IP Filter: fixed the 24-hour allow period becoming shorter or longer when the WordPress and database time zones differ. Times are now compared in the WordPress time zone throughout.
    • Special thanks to hypeinai for the time zone report.

  2. SiteGuard WP Plugin 1.8.9

    • Update Notifications: fixed notification emails still being sent while the feature was set to OFF.
    • CAPTCHA: fixed a fatal error on the login page on servers that cannot render the CAPTCHA image. CAPTCHA is now skipped so that login remains available, and the reason is shown on the settings screen.
    • CAPTCHA: fixed login becoming impossible when the CAPTCHA working directory could not be written to by the web server. This is now detected and reported instead of failing silently.
    • Confirmed compatibility with WordPress 7.1.
    • Special thanks to miruko for the update notification report.

  3. SiteGuard WP Plugin 1.8.8

    • Rename Login: shows a warning when another active plugin is also changing the login page URL.
    • Rename Login: fixed an issue where a fresh install could leave the login page inaccessible (the login URL returned 404).
    • Special thanks to niflex for the plugin conflict report, and to kitadahi for the login URL report.

  4. SiteGuard WP Plugin 1.8.7

    • Fixed a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the logout URL that could occur when the login page URL is changed.
    • Special thanks to daroo (Patchstack) for the report.

  5. SiteGuard WP Plugin 1.8.6

    • Rename Login: when the login URL falls back to the .php (stub) form, the settings screen now explains why .htaccess could not be used.
    • Rename Login: fixed the .htaccess self-test so it works when WordPress has been given its own directory (the WordPress Address differs from the Site Address).
    • Block Author Query: the “Disable REST API” exclusion list now uses REST API namespaces instead of plugin names.
    • Special thanks to abcdrew and miwarock777 for their contributions to this release.
