Here’s how you can change the login URL using this feature.

1. Access the Redirect URLs Settings

To begin changing the WordPress login URL:

• From your WordPress dashboard, navigate to WP Adminify > Security > Redirect URLs.

2. Enable the Redirect URLs Feature

Make sure the feature is enabled by toggling the Show button at the top of the page. This will allow you to access and modify the login and register URL settings.

3. How to customize the WordPress Register URL

Under the Login/Register URL tab:

• Locate the New Login URL field.
• Enter your desired login URL slug, for example, instead of using the default wp-login.php, you could change it to something like login.

For instance, if you set the slug to login, the new login URL will look like this:

https://yourdomain.com/login

4. Save Changes

After you’ve customized the login URL and any other settings, scroll down and click Save Changes to apply the new URL.

5.  Test the New Login URL

To verify the change, log out of your WordPress dashboard and try to log in using the new URL you configured (e.g., yourdomain.com/login). The old wp-login.php URL should no longer be accessible.
