Hello Nicholas
I hope you are well.
I have a problem and was hoping you can advise me what to do.
When I logon to the backend the backend opens, but I cannot do anything. This occurred after upgrading LoginGuard to version 6.0.2 on 3/31/2022. I have not been able to fix this. I have included the Joomla and Server error messages below.
My thoughts are:
1.
Try to temporarily disable login guard like you can do with admin tools, but I do not know how to do this.
2.
Restore the server to a time before I upgraded LoginGuard. This would be most logical, but I don't understand what is causing the issue so to prevent it from happening again I would not update Login Guard which in my thinking means it would be safer to remove it. (This was not to be mean) I know I can remove the plugin from the directory, but I am not certain what else I need to do.
I would appreciate f you could explain to me what is happening so I can avoid the issue again and how you would suggetst fixing the current problem.
Thank you for you patience and help.
