    Hi, i have problem with custom admin link.
    I set it to administrace but when i did it first time, i did something crazy (sorry, dont remember that yet) and now it is always broken.
    Tried reactivate, click on help link which should get everything back, but it does not..
    Tried so many things, but still same problem. Cannot reach administration when plugin is activated. If i could at least somehow internally delete that custom admin link, so i can normally login, it would be fine, but i did not find that 🙁

    Hi, renaming wp-admin path name is a complex process and you’ll need to follow the onscreen instructions very carefully.

    If you have added the following line in wp-config.php while renaming wp-admin path, then delete that line and try logging in.
    define(“ADMIN_COOKIE_PATH”, “/NEW_WPADMIN_PATH_NAME”);

    If still cannot login then follow these steps:
    – rename “hide_my_wp” plugin folder name under /wp-content/plugins/ directory
    – set htaccess content to WP default (https://codex.wordpress.org/htaccess)
    – change permission of htaccess file to read only
    – login to wp-admin
    – rename back “hide_my_wp” plugin to it’s original name
    – activate HMWP plugin
    – click on “reset settings to WP” button in HMWP start tab
    – change htaccess file’s permission to 644 or 755
    – now apply “medium privacy” settings from HMWP start tab.

    If it’s still the issue then please let us know your website’s wp-admin login details & FTP details (as private reply), so that we can look into the issue further.

    Hi, we’ll also need FTP details for renaming wp-admin path name to /administrace

    It seems like you have already renamed wp-login.php as ‘administrace’, so we couldn’t rename wp-admin as administrace. Please let us know another unique name to rename wp-admin with.

    Okay, now.
    I removed our administrace from URL from different plugin.
    Can you please add administrace to your plugin? (just administrace, not codes or pass in url).
    Thank you

    Done! Note that you’ll need to login with the URL – http://vceliste.cz/wp-login.php?hide_my_wp=1234
    (secret code ‘hide_my_wp=1234’ can be changed from general settings tab)
