I’ve got a Patreon who can’t log into my site.  
One error he’s getting is “Sorry. Login aborted due to an API error. - Patreon returned: Temporarily blocked due to repeated 401 errors Please upgrade your WordPress plugin to the latest version and follow the plugins reconnect flow”  
He’s cleared his browser and even tried on a different computer.  
Thoughts?
