What is the easiest way to replace wp admin from wordpress admin URL?
Basically I want to change http://localhost/wpsite/wp-admin
with http://localhost/wpsite/myadminpanel.
Here is a support page for one hosting provider, which suggests installing one of the plugins below to achieve this:
Lockdown WP Admin (this one seems a bit old now)
iThemes Security
And don't forget make a full backup of your website, before doing any of the changes!.
I'm Using this plugin ( https://wordpress.org/plugins/wps-hide-login/) and for me it work fine and it is very easy to setup

I’m trying to build a WordPress multisite.
I want clients to be able to fill out information for a template site, upload pictures, videos and possibly files.
Is this something that can be done using WordPress? I considered using a page builder like Beaver Builder but I don’t think it will work. At least that’s what they told me.
I also wanted to have it where clients can choose their own urls such as www.example.com/choose-your-url.
What’s the best way to go about this?
You have to create a Network in your wordpress setup.
1. Allow Multisite in your config.php file. Add this code:
define( 'WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true );
Install Network under Administration > Tools > Network Setup
Add your site under My site menu on top right.

I am a big fan of WordPress multisite. Please Follow this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CpFGRCj2R9g
I have installed the following WP plugins at my site:
Hide My WP
Wordfence free
All In One WP Security & Firewall (with 410 points)
DNS from CloudFlare (medium settings)
Good global hosting, not cheap.
My Admin name is like "gfutiewf" and login link like: mysite.com/dfwhc.
That´s all okay, today I see again in log:
Anybody at login page try the "gfutiewf" username with bad password...
How? From where he see the login url and admin name?
I'm guessing they were guessing your author ID like so:
http://www.example.com/?author=1
http://www.example.com/?author=2
...
Once found, the WordPress would redirect to:
http://www.example.com/author/myrandomname/
which by default would be your admin name.
One way to solve that would be to change the value of user_nicename column in users table in the database to something else, like 'admin'. That way, the redirect will change to:
http://www.example.com/author/admin/
First off make sure you have the latest version of Hide My WordPress – Security Plugin - currently v1.1.028
Make sure you are not redirecting the old login (ex. wp-login.php to the new login page)
Also are you using Hide My Wp PRO? The current free version only hides the admin and login paths to see if the product is compatible with your WordPress.
To hide all the URLs you need to activate the Ninja mode and the plugin will hide all the paths from your website.
For further help please share your site's name so we can take a look at it.
Hope that helps.
I'm helping someone that has no technical experiences with their WordPress site, and I realized he may have accidentally set it up as a multisite.
My question is if I don't want to go through all the trouble of changing the site back to a regular WordPress site, can I just treat and use the site as a regular WordPress site? Or will there be any technical difficulties later on?
(the site just displays some content and can put items in shopping cart to buy them)
And since it's a multisite and I only have admin power and not super admin, to install plugins I would have to either ask for access to the super admin account or have the person install the plugins for me, right?
Lastly, how would I access and change the wp-content/ files to customize (css/html/js) the templates myself? Do I just download Filezilla to grab the files and change them and upload them back? Or is there a better way to do this?
And would I need super admin power to do this and what additional information do I need to set up the Filezilla besides the site url, my admin account and password?
Sorry for so many questions on here, please let me know if you need any additional information.
Thanks!
he may have accidentally set it up as a multisite.
This sounds weird. Setting up a multisite is not something you do accidently.
I would suggest you ask access through ftp (FileZilla should do, and you do not need to be super admin). To see if it's multisite or not, you can look at the .htaccess file or wp-config.php. If you really do not need the multisite, it's best to revert back to a single install.
Now, to answer your questions,
can I just treat and use the site as a regular WordPress site?
No, you can't, especially not if you are not network admin. You need this to upgrade WP, plugins and the theme. Keeping the installation up-to-date is crucial for security.
to install plugins I would have to either ask for access to the super
admin account or have the person install the plugins for me, right?
Being able to install and update plugins from within the WordPress Admin is convenient. Technically, however, you can also do so through FTP: simply add the plugins to /wp-content/plugins/ and the themes to /wp-content/themes/. You can then activate these on the site.
how would I access and change the wp-content/ files to customize
(css/html/js) the templates myself?
FileZilla indeed. If you have access to the network you can edit these in the WP admin too, but I personally prefer to do so with an editor like Notepad++.
what additional information do I need to set up the Filezilla besides
the site url, my admin account and password?
You can't use your WordPress password for this, you need to have FTP access, and even better sFTP (encrypted). This is something the host should provide. Perhaps these tutorials may be helpful.
GL with it!
I have a problem that every some days my theme has changed and add one file upload form.In wordpress editor i found some hacking code
so how to increase my security in wordpress theme
Basically, you have to keep your website updated with latest version of Wordpress and your plugins as well in order to not leaving yourself open to attacks.If your username is "admin" and your password isn"t strong enough, your site is defenceless to a malicous attack. Never use admin as your user name. I recommend you to install "wordfence security" plugin for your website"s security.
I just had a little doubt..
can i use wordpress inside Magento CMS..... I mean can I able to install wordpress plugins in magento... The reason iam asking about Magento because, Iam gonna use magento templates and besides I also need to use wordpress plugins in it.. I need BOTH..
So, is this possible..?
While my research, I found some links, BUT still iam not clear on this..
here are some links I found:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/magento-wordpress-integration/
https://www.x.com/devzone/articles/magento-part-4-integrating-magento-and-wordpress-using-fishpig-extension
So, can anyone pls clarify on this..?
Answer:no. You can't use WordPress plugins, which are specifically made for WordPress (and based on its framework) directly in Magento.
No, you can't use WordPress plugins with Magento. They have wildly different architectures.
The integration articles you linked to are talking about using WordPress and Magento together on the same website.
You could theoretically write a plug-in for one that also manipulates the database used by the other, but that is likely a custom job, not something you can just go download somewhere.
If you want to use various Wordpress plugins inside Magento, short answer, as mentioned, is no.
With those link that you provide, you can achieve the following:
With wordpress plugin (link that you provided) you can have yourwordpress.com and then install Magento inside a folder, so Magento store would be available. for example, in yourwordpress.com/magentostore/ and you can easily display any Magento block(top links, categories, layered navigation block etc.) from your store in you Wordpress site.
With Magento plugin (I'd go with FishPig http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/wordpress-integration.html) you can have opposite: yourmagentostore.com and than Wordpress blog/site inside blog folder of your Magento installation yourmagentostore.com/wordpressblog/ And there you'd be able to display footer and header of Magento in your wordpress site and display, for example, the latest blog post in Magento
agentoHope this help!
i think its impossible...because they have different backend architecture
