**Update 5/25/2023: We have implemented version 2.25.18 of LLAR plugin that resolves
the issue. Please [update to the latest version of LLAR](https://wordpress.org/plugins/limit-login-attempts-reloaded/)
now. This is a solution to resolve plugin conflicts for some web hosting providers.**

Certain web hosting providers automatically include our plugin in every WordPress
website they host by placing it in the **MU folder (Must-Use Folder)**. The LLAR
plugin becomes **mandatory**, and users typically **cannot uninstall it**. We discussed
this in detail in our [article on LLAR in the MU folder](https://www.limitloginattempts.com/blogs/guides/how-to-tell-if-i-have-limit-login-attempts-reloaded-on-my-site-a-survival-guide-for-godaddy-customers/).
Nevertheless, there are specific circumstances where users retain the option to 
install our plugin through the standard plugin installation process. This, however,
can lead to the simultaneous operation of two versions on the same website, which
is not advisable. Such a scenario **may result in conflicts and errors**, as illustrated
below.

## How To Resolve This Issue

The solution is simple and only takes a few minutes.

### Step #1: Remove the current version under the “Plugins” section (/wp-admin/plugins.php)

### ⏎ Step #2: Configure the current version of LLAR your web hosting provider installed for you.

You can find this version of the plugin under “Settings” in your WordPress admin
dashboard.

### ⏎ After these steps are completed, your website will be fully operational again.

Unfortunately, you won’t be using the latest version of LLAR, but rest assure it
will be a **safe and effective version**. Plugins installed in the MU folder are**
controlled by the web host provider** and are **not updated as frequently**. Our
team does not have any control over this and we cannot force your web host provider
to update MU plugins.
