Cerber not blocking wp-login.php even with setting turned on

Hi there, After toggling the "Disable wp-login.php" setting on, wp-login.php is still accessible (from an incognito window, from another browser, even after dumping browser cache). I've purged all of the site's caches (siteground, cloudflare) and the problem remains--is this a bug in the plugin, or something to do with my site? I followed the procedure here: https://www.g2.com/products/cerber-security-antispam-malware-scan/discuss with the exception of the "Request wp-login.php" setting. Thanks for your help!

That's it--I didn't realize that the plugin had whitelisted my IP. I just checked from another address, and the page is blocked correctly--thank you!

Please make sure that your IP address is not in the White IP Access List. If an IP address is in the list, WP Cerber does not block access to wp-login.php. I think this is your case.
