Choose a custom login address

Admin Login URL Change Pro assigns a custom slug to the WordPress login form by intercepting page requests. It does not change WordPress core files. A less familiar address can reduce exposure to automated requests aimed at the default login paths.

Basic setup requires no coding. In WordPress, install and activate the add-on, open the Admin Login Slug menu, enter a slug such as madmin, and select Save Settings. Bookmark the new login address and test it. Once you have confirmed that it works, share it with authorized users who need access.

Configure access and sign-in rules

Choose the Pro controls that fit your login workflow:

• IP and CIDR blocking: Block individual IP addresses or complete CIDR ranges from reaching the custom login page. Set auto-ban thresholds and ban durations, and enable email alerts.
• Country restrictions: Restrict login access to selected countries using a live, searchable database covering more than 200 global regions.
• Login attempt limits: Set maximum retries, retry windows, lockout durations, and warning alerts to define how repeated attempts are handled.
• Two-factor authentication: Require a second verification step through an authenticator app such as Google Authenticator, Authy, or Microsoft Authenticator, or use Email OTP.

Review login activity

Email alerts report successful and failed logins with the IP address, username, and timestamp. The expanded login audit log includes user-agent details and stores up to 500 entries.

Compatibility

The plugin works with native WordPress login flows and WooCommerce checkout and account logins. IP and CIDR rules target specific network sources, while country restrictions apply a broader geographic filter.
