Login Guard is built to sit quietly alongside everything else on your site. Here is what to know.
Login links on your site:
Some themes and plugins show a login link to visitors, such as a Member Login link in the footer or the Log in link in WordPress's Meta widget. When those links are built the standard WordPress way, Login Guard points them to your secret address automatically, so they keep working. The flip side: anyone who can see that link can see your address. If you want the address truly secret, remove public login links from your theme and widgets and share the address only with the people who need it. Links to sign in on a different website are left alone.
Your forms and background features:
Your site's forms and features that talk to WordPress behind the scenes (through admin-ajax.php and admin-post.php), scheduled tasks and WP-CLI are not touched. Password-protected posts keep working too.
Page caches:
If you use a page cache, add your secret login address to the list of pages your cache must never cache, the same as you would for wp-login.php. The Diagnostics tab shows a Page cache row, and when a cache is switched on it reminds you to do this.
Other plugins that move or guard the login:
Only one plugin should move your login. Two at once fight over every sign-in. The Diagnostics tab has an Other login plugins section showing whether several well-known security and login plugins are active on your site. If one of them also moves your login, switch its login-moving feature off. Its other features can stay on. See Switching Over From Another Hide-Login Plugin.
Your theme's "page not found":
When Login Guard hides wp-login.php, it shows whatever "page not found" page your theme already has. Change your theme and the disguise changes with it.
The ResultsAiX Hub:
Login Guard registers with the free ResultsAiX Hub, so it appears there alongside your other ResultsAiX plugins, and a Hub tab appears on the Login Guard screens. The Login Guard screens follow the Hub's colour scheme unless you pick one of your own under Appearance.
Multisite:
Login Guard is built for a standard single WordPress site and keeps its settings per site. It has no network-wide settings screen. If you run a multisite network, contact support at https://kevinfahey.org/contact-support/ before installing it.
