    The rewrite rules for both my login address and password are now displayed in .htaccess in association with every plugin, is this normal? Is this safe?

    For example:

    RewriteRule ^modules/719bbf8b/(.*) /wp-content/plugins/plugin-x/$1?fffecz_LOGIN_ADD=PASSWORD [QSA,L]

    This is shown multiple times for every plugin in the site. Should I be concerned that these are visible in the .htaccess?

    Thank you!

    Hi, this is the requirement of HMWP plugin. And you should not worry as htaccess file is not viewable by anybody visiting your website.
