Hi,

Thanks to the recent rash of hacking attempts, we lost access to the Wordpress dashboard for aspiringmama.com. I attempted the recommended "Dynamic IP address access, limit by referer" solution given on this Inmotion Hosting page: https://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/edu/wordpress/lock-down-wordpress-admin-login-with-htaccess

... with no success. Still blocked.

Any advice or ideas?
