Hi @teolives,
Can you run the following query to see what it returns?
SELECT val FROM wp_wfconfig WHERE name = 'loginSec_maskLoginErrors';
Dave
Hello Dave and thanks for the prompt answer.
I believe you mean wp_wfConfig.
The result is: [BLOB – 1 B]
Hi again,
It should have displayed a number, however, can you run this query now?
UPDATE wp_wfConfig SET val = 0 WHERE name = 'loginSec_maskLoginErrors';
Note that table names are case-insensitive, so wp_wfconfig and wp_wfConfig should run the same.
After running that query, can you logout and see if the old error message appears?
Dave
Hello Dave,
sorry for the remark but in phpMyAdmin it couldn’t find the table if spelled with a lowercase :-/
So, I run that query but the problem persists… although the blob value is now set to 0

Hi Dave, any new suggestion? The login behaviour like that is a bit unintuitive…
OK, I further checked and I suppose there is an incompatibility between the plugin Theme My Login (6.4.17) and Wordfence because if I use the standard WordPress login then the messages appear correctly…
After further analysis I can say that if I deactivate the 2FA feature, error messages start appearing again.
So in which field is the ball? TML or Wordfence?
See this tread: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-messages-at-login-not-showing/
That would seem to be a Theme My Login page issue. If the error messages show correctly when it is disabled then something in TML is causing them not to appear. Opening the browser console may help see what exactly is going on.
