How our New Login URL feature works
If you define a new URL for login, it works like a security token for your wp-admin. Entering your custom URL once, will whitelist your IP to access regular wp-admin URL again.
Example usage:
Let’s say you enter “myadmin” to the New URL field.
To log in to your WordPress admin panel, you need to:
- First visit your secret URL (for example**“yourdomain.com/myadmin”**).
- Your IP gets whitelisted and from that moment on, you can log in from the regular “yourdomain.com/wp-admin” again.
- Other visitors are blocked from wp-admin page, unless they know your security token (in this case /myadmin).
