Description

Custom Login URL (CLU) is a lightweight plugin that allows to customize default WP login, registration and password
reminder URLs without modifying any files, simple and swift.

Why would anyone would want to use this plugin? Well, after developing WPHelpDesk it turned
out that site owners do not want to reveal to customers that they are using WordPress, hence the plugin that will mask
original URLs.

What the plugin can do:

  • change /wp-login.php to for example /user/login/
  • change /wp-login.php?action=register to for example /user/register/
  • change /wp-login.php?action=lostpassword to for example /user/remind/
  • change /wp-login.php?action=logout to for example /user/logout/
  • you can define your own custom paths for each URL above
  • set successfull login and logout redirect URLs

In order to make the plugin work you need to have Permalinks enabled in WP Settings.

Screenshots

  • Custom URLs configuration page in wp-admin / Settings / Permalinks panel.

Installation

  1. Upload custom-login-url folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
  3. Go to wp-admin / Settings / Permalinks and configure your custom URLs

Perfect!

Simple and effective

It works with wordpress 4.9.8

It does what it says. I just used it to change the login link.

It works.

Load of tosh

Installed it, changed the URLs (not very clear I might add) and locked myself out. Entering correct login details just refreshed the page until I went BACK to wp-admin, where I was already logged in. Pile of rubbish. Avoid.

Works as promoted

Allows for changing the login, registration, lost password, and logout URLs to something custom. Works great under 4.6.1, even though it does not say it's tested under anything above 4.2.10.

what's the point?

Not to be rude, but just went to your WPHelpDesk site and just typed https://wphelpdesk.com/wp-admin and it redirected to the login page of that site revealing it's a WP site. So, again, what is the point?
