Easy Hide Login: Breakdown
The Easy Hide Login plugin is a risk-free way to protect a WordPress site from malicious logins – all without requiring technical skills. The plugin allows users to change the default WordPress login URL, disguising it from login attempts from spiders and hackers. What makes this plugin different from other WordPress security plugins is its ability to auto-generate a complex, highly secure login URL. It can even be configured to give a specific user a custom login URL for additional security.
In order to conceal the WordPress login page, the plugin does not require users to manually generate a new URL. Instead, the plugin creates a new URL and sets up a secure blank page at that URL. This page redirects the user to the actual WordPress login page once the correct username and password have been entered. Once the WordPress login page has been secured, the plugin also blocks bots from accessing the page. This includes blocking IP addresses from repetitive failed login attempts, and it can also log the details of failed login attempts for security audit purposes.
The Easy Hide Login plugin also allows users to easily manage their login pages. For example, users may customize the page name and create custom messages that show on the page as well as administrator messages with the correct login credentials. The plugin also notifies the administrator of any attempts to access the WordPress login page, and users may customize the notification emails they receive. Finally, the plugin’s dashboard allows the user to see activity such as failed attempts, successful logins, and more.
