Hide your login page. Starve the bots.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Brute-force bots hammer VanishLogin<\/strong> moves that door. Your login form lives at a custom login URL only you know<\/strong> (like What it does<\/strong><\/p>\n\n How it works<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Built like a security tool should be<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Built by WordPress security specialist Md Jahid Bin Sabit.<\/p>\n\n VanishLogin is designed, built, and maintained by Md Jahid Bin Sabit<\/strong> \u2014 WordPress security specialist.<\/p>\n\n Locked out?<\/strong> Add Install VanishLogin, turn protection on under Settings \u2192 Stealth Login<\/strong>, and choose a secret slug. Your login form moves to That is exactly what VanishLogin does \u2014 it lets you rename wp-login.php to anything you want: any custom login URL you choose, with live validation so you cannot pick a slug that clashes with an existing page. All core links (lost password, logout, register) are rewritten to the new address automatically.<\/p><\/dd>\n You choose: a 404 \"page not found\", a quiet redirect to your homepage, or a redirect to any custom URL. Every hit is recorded in the intruder IP log either way.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. The intruder IP log groups every hit on the old login page by IP, with hit counts and last-seen times. One click blocks an IP everywhere \u2014 even on your secret login URL \u2014 and one click unblocks it. You can never block your own IP.<\/p><\/dd>\n No. The plugin never blocks logged-in users, and an emergency bypass constant ( Yes. VanishLogin only changes where the login form lives and blocks the old address \u2014 authentication itself is untouched, so 2FA and login-attempt limiters keep working. The combination is stronger than either alone: bots cannot find the form, and attempts on the real form are limited.<\/p><\/dd>\n They keep working. The plugin rewrites wp-login.php links (lost-password, logout, register) to your secret URL automatically.<\/p><\/dd>\n No \u2014 it is one strong layer. It removes the most-attacked target on your site; pair it with 2FA, login-attempt limiting, and regular updates for defense in depth.<\/p><\/dd>\n No. It adds no scripts or styles to your public pages and makes no external requests. Its checks run only on login-related requests.<\/p><\/dd>\n Your secret URL is never linked anywhere public, and blocked addresses return 404 \u2014 nothing for crawlers to index.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes \u2014 100% free, GPL-licensed, no premium version, no upsells, no locked features.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\nwp-login.php<\/code> on every WordPress site \u2014 thousands of password guesses a day, around the clock. They can only attack a door they can find. The simplest fix is to hide the login page<\/strong>: rename wp-login.php to a custom login URL that only you and your team know.<\/p>\n\nyoursite.com\/my-secret-door<\/code>), while the old wp-login.php<\/code> stops answering anyone who is logged out. Your access logs go quiet, your server stops wasting resources on bot traffic, and password guessing has nowhere to land.<\/p>\n\n\n
