Descrizione
This plugin forbids access to https://example.com/wp-login.php and creates new urls, like https://example.com/login or https://example.com/logout.
This is a great way to limit bots trying to brute-force your login (trying to guess your login and password). Of course, the new URLs are easier to remember too.
Also remember: the use of this plugin does NOT exempt you to use a strong password. Moreover, never use “admin” as login, this is the first attempt for bots.
By the way, if you are looking for a complete security solution, take a look at SecuPress: Move Login is included inside.
Multi-sito
Yes! The plugin must be activated from your network.
Note 1: this plugin deals only with wp-login.php, not with wp-signup.php nor with wp-activate.php (yet). That means https://example.com/register will still redirect to https://example.com/wp-signup.php. I think this will be the next step though, but no ETA.
Note 2: if users/sites registrations are open, you shouldn’t use this plugin yet. There are some places where the log in address is hard coded and not filterable. A bug ticket is open.
Requisiti
- You will need a FTP access: if the
.htaccess/web.configfile is not writable (you will need to add the given rules manually), or if something is wrong and you can’t log in anymore (see the FAQ in that case). - Should work on IIS7+ servers but not tested (I guess you should probably save a copy of your
web.configfile before the plugin activation). - For Nginx servers, the rewrite rules are not written automatically of course, but they are provided as information in the plugin settings page.

Installazione
- Extract the plugin folder from the downloaded ZIP file.
- Upload the
sf-move-loginfolder to your/wp-content/plugins/directory. - If you have another plugin that makes redirections to https://example.com/wp-login.php (a short-links plugin for example), disable it or remove the redirection, otherwise they will conflict and you’ll be locked out. See the FAQ in case you’re not able to reach the login page (make sure to have a FTP access to your site).
- Activate the plugin from the “Plugins” page.
- If the plugin can’t write your
.htaccessfile orweb.configfile, you’ll need to edit it yourself with a FTP access, the rules are provided in the plugin settings page.
FAQ
-
Can I set my own URLs?
-
Yes this is the goal of the plugin
-
I’m locked out! I can’t access the login page!
-
You need a FTP access to your site. When logged in with your FTP software, open the file
wp-config.phplocated at the root of your installation. Simply add this in the file:define( 'SFML_ALLOW_LOGIN_ACCESS', true );and save the file. This will bypass the plugin and you’ll be able to access https://example.com/wp-login.php. Another plugin may conflict, you’ll need to find which one before removing this new line of code. -
Does it really work for Multisite?
-
Yes. Each blog has its own login page (but the customized slugs are the same for each blog though). The plugin must be activated from the network.
Eventually, try the WordPress support forum (best).
