Moderators:
Please merge this thread into the previous question that Brook answered for us. Was unable to post a follow up and thought the answer may be helpful to others.

Thank you Brook for the response.
Adding the following code to .htaccess in /wp-admin seems to have done the trick while still enforcing the IP restriction to wp-login.php.

# Allow plugin access to admin-ajax.php around password protection
<Files admin-ajax.php>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Satisfy any
</Files>

Excellent! Glad to hear you fixed it, and thank you for sharing a solution for future users. I like the idea of locking down wp-admin as much as possible.

Our forums currently close the topic of any thread with an answer marked, hence why you can’t post in the other topic. We are eager to fix this behavior since it has proved utterly confusing for many forum users. However, our dev team has been focused on the next TEC release. Once they have a spare moment, expect that behavior to change. Thanks for posting!

– Brook
