Hello,
Today I found that some crawlers (at least I can see hits in Crawlers tab in Wordfence plugin) hits my wp-admin path. Of course, my wp-admin was changed to another name by using Hide-my-wp plugin. I can see that someone hits e.g: mywebsite.com/test/new wp-admin path/, mywebsite.com/old/new wp-admin path/, mywebsite.com/blog/new wp-admin path/, mywebsite.com/wordpress/new wp-admin path/
I don’t have folders like this in my WordPress site.
Is that normal? Does it means that someone is trying to access to my site?
Best regards,
Jakub.December 14, 2015 at 6:06 am #6549Hei,
I have also tried to change my wp-admin path in Hide My Wp plugin. When I changed my old wp-admin-path to a new one, I saw Page 404. I’ve put a new wp-admin path in config.php. But now when I’m trying to log in to my admin page, I get just page 404. I cannot log in to a admin panel.
Can you help me to fix this issue?
Best regards,
Jakub.December 14, 2015 at 4:36 pm #6554I’ve tried to change wp-admin path to a new one in htaccess, in wp-config. I’ve tried also to rename hide-my-wp plugin folder and hidden-we-admin but I still have the same problem.
When I’m logging as a administrator I’m getting Page 404 instead of administrator panel.
Can you help me to fix this issue?
Best regards,
Jakub.December 15, 2015 at 7:12 am #6562Hi again,
Ive deactivated the plugin and now I can log in to the administration panel. But everytime when I want to log in to the administration panel I need to deactivate plugin via FTP. How can I set up the plugin in this way that it will be working with a new admin path?
Best regards,
Jakub.December 16, 2015 at 7:45 pm #6584Hi, sorry for getting back to you late. As the issue is related to wp-admin path change, can you please let us know your website’s wp-admin login details and FTP details (as private reply), so that we can have a look at the issue and fix it.

December 20, 2015 at 2:42 pm #6699Hei Suman,
that’s ok!
Of course I can, but the problem is that I need to accept every entrance to my website on my mobile phone.
I can give you login details to FTP – will it be enough?
Best regards,
Jakub.December 20, 2015 at 9:52 pm #6710Hi, to check this issue we’ll be needing both FTP and wp-admin details.

– in HMWP start tab, set ‘Medium Privacy – More Compatibility’ scheme and save the settings
– in HMWP permalinks & urls tab, set “rename plugins” option to “all plugins” and save the settings
– in HMWP permalinks & urls tab, set New wp-admin path field to “qnC9Q23K3f2D” and added following line in wp-config.php file:
define(“ADMIN_COOKIE_PATH”, “/qnC9Q23K3f2D”);
– in HMWP general settings tab set login query (login secret key) to 9D3F65uJCm=s6cY3LnulQNow everything seems to be working fine. Let us know if any issue there.
