Introduction to WPS Hide Login

With the help of the small and secure plugin WPS Hide Login, you can quickly and easily change the URL of the login form page to anything you like. It neither adds rewrite rules nor does it literally rename or modify core files. It just blocks page requests and functions on all WordPress websites. If you forget the URL, the wp-admin directory and wp-login.php page become inaccessible. When you deactivate this plugin, your website returns to its original state.

Watch our short tutorial video on this:

Step-by-step Process

Installing and Activating the Plugin

  • First, login to your WordPress site dashboard
  • Click on Plugins
  • Select Add New
  • Type WPS Hide Login in the search box
  • Click on Install Now.
  • Click on Activate.

Accessing Plugin Settings

  • Click on Settings under WPS Hide Login plugin

Changing the Login URL

  • Change the Login url to your preferred settings
  • Click on Save Settings.

Testing the New URL

  • Now, letโ€™s see whether it works properly
  • Open a new Private Window
  • Type your WordPress site’s domain name/wp-admin address. Itโ€™ll show a 404-error page
  • Enter your WordPress site’s domain name/wp-login address. Itโ€™ll also show a 404-error page
  • Now, enter the url address you just set on the WPS Hide Login Settings
  • You can see that the WordPress dashboard is accessible through the new URL
