    I have the same issue as dnsjak. I’ve installed the plugin, HTaccess is editable (and it’s being updated with these new settings.

    I have lowered the settings to minimum and they still wreck the site and dont load the CSS and template correctly.

    I have purged the cache on both the host server and on the browser
    I’ve set and reset the Permalinks, – the source code of the page seems to be changed but it’s not responding to the HTaccess, or the settings in HTaccess are incorrect.

    I use WP-Engine to host the site.

    If I disable the plugin, the site works just fine.

    Finally, the replaced wp-admin link works just fine.

    Thanks for any help you can offer?

    Chris.

    Hi, since you are using WP Engine, you’ll need to follow the steps as mentioned here – http://codecanyon.net/item/hide-my-wp-amazing-security-plugin-for-wordpress/4177158/faqs/17669

    Hi Suman,

    Thanks for the quick reply,

    These instructions dont reflect the current WP Engine. I’ve been on their support chat all afternnon trying to figure out the correct syntax….

    The redirect control panel is divided in source and destination, and the htaccess terminology will not work as regex commands…. can you help me further with the correct code I need to use?

    This video shows the WP Engine control panel for the install: https://isoblue.wistia.com/medias/lwqsrtqaqh

    Thanks

    Please follow these steps:

    – goto HMWP start tab and apply “medium privacy settings”
    – in start tab, click on “Nginx configuration” button or goto URL – http://YourDomain.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=hide_my_wp&nginx_config=1&die_message=nginx
    – you’ll see a set of Nginx configuration rules, Source and destination separated with a space. First is source and second is destination.
    – go to “Redirection” menu in your WPE panel, and enter above redirection rules (as source and destination)

    Example:
    Let’s say you have the following rule in HMWP:
    rewrite ^/other/(.*) /wp-includes/$1?CQvb_hide_my_wp=1234 last;

    Here,
    Source: ^/other/(.*)
    Destination: /wp-includes/$1?CQvb_hide_my_wp=1234

    Thanks for your help,

    I entered all ten rules and it did not work, I spoke to tech support at WP-Engine and was informed that they discourage the use of this plugin and advised against further work with it, suggesting I removed it.

    Would you please arrange a refund for me?

    I’m sorry, but according to WP-Engine the combination of their platform and your plugin ’causes all sorts of problems’.

    Thanks,

    Chris.

    Many of our customers are successfully using it with WPEngine platform. However, I’ve assigned this ticket to Sr. support and he shall get back to you regarding the refund.
