Not sure if this is a bug report or a feature request...

I checked the box to warn users about the remaining number of login attempts before they get banned. However it seems that since I set max user failures to zero (I don't want user accounts to get banned) the message never appears. What I really want is to warn people how many login failures they have remaining before they get soft IP banned or hard IP banned. It seems that feature doesn't exist though?

i can +1 this as a feature request (message notifications for blocking a host), and also provide a reason why this is actually a bug:

expected
1. set max user attempts to 0
2. leave "disable login notifications" option unchecked.
3. should still get core login notification errors.

actual
1. set max user attempts to 0
2. leave "disable login notifications" option unchecked.
3. do not get core login notification errors.

in fact, it appears that it doesn't even matter in step 1 if max user attempts is set to a number greater than 0, so long as "Notify the user about the number of remaining login attempts" is left unchecked; the core login failure message will not show up.

I wanted to warn users about remaining login attempts but message is not displayed. Instead it display default message "Sorry, unrecognized username or password. Have you forgotten your password?" is displayed.
I had event tried to disable notifications but it doesn't work either. Default message is always displayed no matter what I do.
In fact any option doesn't work.

Tried to install with vanilla Drupal and guess what? Doesn't work also.

Can you please fix this module to work?

Please take a look at this comment: https://drupal.org/node/2074123#comment-7807999

My bug fix code line makes possible to show warning/notification messages.
