So I was blocked out again this morning. It seems whenever I go to the /administrator url for the first time each day, I get bumped back to the home page and locked out. I used the recovery url again and was able to get to the error log. I only found my IP (range) in there once!
Reason: Admin Exclusive Allow IP List
URL: https://headcakemedia.com/administrator/index.php?option=com_login&task=logout&59742b77babd0f0cbd55c4d452f6065c=1
Does that reason mean it's just me adding my IP to the white list? I saw no other blocked error.
