Manually rewrite wp-admin

  • Hi there, thanks for the great plugin! Is there a way to rewrite the wp-admin link in the notification email? For safety purposes I renamed my wp-admin with some other term to keep brute force attacks away. To do this I used the All In One WP Security & Firewall plugin.
    Unfortunately this renaming future does not work throughout the whole system so I would like to set the login / wp-admin manually in the broken link checker plugin. (This would be a great feature for an update.)

    Thanks in advance!

  • The standard way to rewrite wp-admin links would be to use the admin_url filter. This way you could update the entire system at once instead of having to change or reconfigure individual plugins. (Well, except for poorly designed plugins that hard-code the wp-admin directory name.)

    If you’re still seeing the old admin URL in your notification email, that probably means “All In One WP Security & Firewall” doesn’t take advantage of the admin_url filter. Perhaps the author of that plugin would be willing to add it?
