Why move your login page?

By default, WordPress login pages are located at /wp-login.php and /wp-admin/, making them easy targets for bots and attackers. SP Move Login allows you to:

  • Change your login URL to a custom slug
  • Protect your registration page (if enabled)
  • Block access to the default login pages
  • Display custom error messages or redirect to a custom page when someone tries to access the old login URL

Features:

  • Simple and easy to use
  • Change your login URL with just a few clicks
  • Works with pretty permalinks
  • Compatible with multisite installations (includes Single Sign-On support)
  • Custom error messages for blocked access
  • Redirect to custom page option
  • Lightweight – focused solely on moving your login page

Note: This plugin requires pretty permalinks to be enabled. You can activate them in Settings > Permalinks.

For more advanced security features, check out the full SecuPress version.
