Configure Hide My WP on WPEngine

Posted By Hassan In Videos

This video helps you to configure Hide My WP 5.1+ on WPEngine using a pre-made settings scheme. You need to use WPEngine Panel (Rewrite Rules) and enter HMWP settings line by line. Note that you may need to update WPE settings after changing settings or activating new plugin or theme.

You can find HMWP settings here:

http://domain.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=hide_my_wp&die_message=nginx

PS:

  • The order of rules are important.
  • WPEnigne doesn’t support full hide mode at this moment.
  • If you enabled IDS exclude these 4 items (below).

nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/default
[..do edit..]
service nginx restart

Configure Hide My WP to change wp-admin to myadmin (or anything else). It was assumed you use Apache with a writable htaccess file which is the most common type of web server so we ignored manual configuration (i.e. Step 1).
