Cant login or log out with plugin enabled

Are all your plugins up to date?

This is surely due to a plugin conflict.

Have you refreshed your permalinks?

I can also see the problem with newest version 1.5.5 – with 1.5.4.2 everything is working fine.

Also there is no error.log created!

Best regards.

Thank you.

Plugins are all up to date.

I deactivated all plugins and login and out is no issue.

With only the WPS hide login plugin activated, I tried to log out and get “Oops! That page can’t be found.” and it will not log out.

I went to the permalinks pages and without changing anything, clicked “save changes” and it did not help. Is that what you meant by refresh permalinks?

Maybe i have found the solution!

I am using “Umlaute” like ?,?,ü or ? and it doesn′t work!

If i am not using this “Umlaute” all is working fine!

Best regards

@nicolaskulka , can you please help troubleshoot this?

Are you on Apache or Nginx?

If apache, check that you have a .htaccess file, if it is not: https://www.ads-software.com/support/article/htaccess/

Just go to the permalinks page to refresh them.

@nicolaskulka

I use A2 hosting. They said consider this Apache for your questions.

HTaccess file is ther and can be viewed it in yoast.

I reactivated wps hide login, then refreshed permalinks per https://wpastra.com/docs/how-to-refresh-wordpress-permalinks/

cannot log out of wordpress with WPS hide login activated. I get “Oops! That page can’t be found.”

Anything else I can try, @nicolaskulka

it looks like others are having the same issue now.

Currently having the following plugins enabled (all latest versions atm of writing) on my personal website (portfolio/blog):

• Akismet Anti-Spam 4.1.3
• AMP 1.4.4
• Contact Form 7 5.1.6
• Google Analytics for WordPress by MonsterInsights 7.10.4
• Jetpack by WordPress.com 8.2.3
• SEOPress 3.8.1
• WP Page Builder 1.2.2

Working fine on theme “Bard” 1.6.7.4 with permalinks set to /%postname%/%post_id%/

As of now, WPS Hide Login 1.5.5 does not work with my setup; error 404 is returned as a redirect from /wp-admin/ while /?backend-login (my configured “hidden” login URL) displays my home page.

Hi, @nicolaskulka,

First, thanks to you and your colleagues for the plugin, which I have been using for some time now without issue.

Last week I migrated to a new hosting solution on an AWS VM, where I am now hosting two WordPress sites:
– Linux (CentOS 7)
– Nginx (1.16.1)
– MariaDB (10.4.12-MariaDB MariaDB Server)
– PHP (7.4.4)

I am now unable to log out when using WPS Hide Login on either site. Clicking Log Out just brings me back to /wp-admin. I have tried rewriting the permalinks several times, and have tried deactivating, rewriting permalinks, activating, rewriting again, etc.

In my case it may have something to do with SELinux. Are you aware of any SELinux issues?

All plugins and WordPress are up to date. There is possibly a plugin conflict, but I haven’t introduced any new plugins, so it may be something in my LEMP stack. However, I will try deactivating each plugin to see if I see a difference.

Thanks again.

Just to follow up on the above message, I have now gone through the site and tested Log Out with each other plugin (and with all of the other plugins) deactivated; the Log Out link with the WPS Hide Login still does not work.

Following up,

I can confirm that on latest WordPress (5.4 as of writing), without any plugin but “wps hide login”, it works flawlessly.

I then tried (right now) to install it on my production WordPress instance with a bunch of other plugins, and with version 5.4 of WordPress and v1.5.6 of WPS Hide Login, it works perfectly.

It seems that, for me at least, the bug has solved.
Thanks a lot for your effords!
Bryan.
