By default, WordPress exposes `/wp-login.php` and `/wp-admin/`. Bots hammer these URLs every day. This plugin gives you a **private login slug** (e.g. `/dragon-lair`) and hides the default login endpoint: * Defaults to `/wp-login.php` until you change it. * Once changed, **only your custom slug** works. * Direct access to `/wp-login.php` shows a **404 Not Found** (stealth mode). * Logged-out visitors hitting `/wp-admin/` are **redirected to the homepage**. * Deactivate the plugin everything reverts to normal. Made with ❤️ by [Ben Treder](https://BenTreder.com) ### Features * **Private login slug** (e.g. `/dragon-lair`, `/control-center`, `/secret-gate`) * **Stealth 404 protection**: Bots hitting `/wp-login.php` see “Not Found” * **Homepage redirect**: `/wp-admin/` (logged out) homepage * **Easy settings page** under Settings Secure Login Shield * **Safe activation/deactivation**: no core hacks, auto-reverts when disabled ### Contribute & Support * Website: [BenTreder.com](https://BenTreder.com) * Author: [Ben Treder](https://profiles.wordpress.org/bentreder/) * Issues & Feature Requests: Please open a ticket on [BenTreder.com](https://BenTreder.com) * Like this plugin? ⭐ Leave a review and help spread the word! * ☕ Support development: [Buy Me a Coffee](https://www.buymeacoffee.com/bentreder) ## Screenshot * [[ * Settings page showing the default login slug (/wp-login.php) * [[ * Settings page with a custom private slug (/dragon-lair) ## Installazione 1. Upload the `secure-login-shield` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory or install via Plugins Add New Upload. 2. Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” menu in WordPress. 3. **Go to Settings Secure Login Shield.** 4. Set your private slug (example: `dragon-lair`). 5. **Go to Settings Permalinks Save Changes** (refresh rewrite rules). 6. If you use a caching plugin or CDN, **clear cache** to avoid stale redirects. 7. Log in using `https://yoursite.com/dragon-lair`. **Important:** Bookmark your new login URL! If you forget it, you’ll need to disable the plugin via FTP or database. ## FAQ ### Will this break my site? No. By default it uses `/wp-login.php` until you change it. Deactivating the plugin instantly reverts WordPress to normal behavior. ### Can I completely block /wp-login.php? Yes. Once you set a slug, `/wp-login.php` (and actions) return a 404 Not Found. ### What if I forget my private slug? Deactivate the plugin via FTP (delete or rename `secure-login-shield`). WordPress will go back to `/wp-login.php`. ### Does this work with caching plugins or CDNs? Yes, but after changing your slug, you should clear cache/CDN to avoid serving stale redirects. ## Recensioni ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/c265744b104cddc9d9f334cbc86cce65a6d5ff5aa7a04e71e446706eef32b6cd? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-40862/)󠁿 [urosjovanovic](https://profiles.wordpress.org/urosjovanovic/) 22 Settembre 2025 Secure Login Shield is a great plugin!
