Simple WordPress Login
20 Sep
Whether you want to make it easier for your client to remember, or you are tired of typing wp-login, it’s easy to have a simplified login. I found the following tips posted by Chris Coyer
1. To make your login URL just http://yoursite.com/login just add this line in your .htaccess file before the default WordPress rewrite stuff:
RewriteRule ^login$ http://yoursite.com/wp-login.php [NC,L]2.If you do not have an .htaccess file open your text editor and past all of the following code and save in your root folder.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^login$ http://focus.ergon.com/wp-login.php [NC,L]
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
# old code — RewriteBase /dev/
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
# old code — RewriteRule . /dev/index.php [L]
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
<files wp-config.php>
order deny,allow
deny from all
</files>
# END WordPress
