Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

php on almost every WordPress site. com/my-door/, and answers requests to the default entry points with a regular 404 page of your theme.

Features

  • Choose any login URL – letters, numbers, hyphens and underscores.
  • wp-login.php, wp-register.php and /wp-admin/ return a real 404 status for logged-out visitors (no white screen, no redirect that gives the new URL away).
  • WordPress’ shortcuts /login, /admin and /dashboard no longer reveal the login.
  • Password reset, registration, logout and e-mail links automatically use the new URL.
  • Works with and without pretty permalinks. Your permalink settings are never touched.
  • Collision check: the plugin refuses slugs that are already used by WordPress, a page or a post.
  • Emergency switch: define( 'LSFW_DISABLE', true ); in wp-config.php.
  • No database tables, no rewrite rules, no tracking. Uninstall removes all options.

Why hide the login at all?

Honest answer: a hidden login is no replacement for strong passwords, two-factor authentication or a login limit. Its value is different – automated attacks stop hitting your login form, which means less server load, fewer lockouts of real users and cleaner logs. htaccess password is not an option, and it gives your customers a nicer login address.

Combine it with 2FA for real protection.
