Hello! On one project there is a user who can not always correctly enter the login/password, and the system blocked him sometimes.
We will not find out what problems he has (age, vision, health), but the question of how to unlock the user who falls under control of login errors? (Technical support should help users solve such problems on this site.)
In Drupal, the Flood Unblock module was used for this (https://drupal.org/project/flood_unblock). Are there any thoughts for Backdrop CMS?

What I typically do is truncate the flood table. This will remove everything, but since this happens just once in a while, it doesn't create issues. You could also increase the number of attempts before the block.
It looks like the drupal flood_unblock module was discontinued and the feature added to the flood_control module:
This module will be discontinued. Please use Flood Control instead, which now contains the functionality of Flood Unblock.
The drupal flood_control module provided both configuration and managing individuals, although it looks as though that was added into modern drupal versions of the module, https://www.drupal.org/project/flood_control/issues/3176717:
- Configure the flood settings at Configuration > People > Flood Control (/admin/config/people/flood-control)
- Manage the flood table at People > Flood Unblock (/admin/people/flood-unblock)
While the Backdrop flood_control module only provides the configuration:
admin/config/system/flood-control
and does not includes /admin/people/flood-unblock
The latter may be a feature request to add to the module.
Solution: porting the Flood Unblock module using Coder Upgrade (https://backdropcms.org/project/coder_upgrade)...
It's already been ported, https://github.com/backdrop-contrib/flood_unblock how did we miss it?
Because it doesn't have a release yet?
@Enthusiast Have you had a chance to try https://github.com/backdrop-contrib/flood_unblock ?
