    So i just received my first email alert from HMWPG and it looks like this

    Do i need to be worried? Does this mean someone was able to access the backend or is it just saying someone visited the ghost-login url page?

    ??Hi,

    It means that it accessed the path ghost-login.

    If you don’t know the IP you can block it from Brute Force and/or change the login path from Change Paths > Login Security.

    But no, you don’t need to worry about it. Just make sure that you have Brute Force enabled.

    Im confused. I figured out this was a long time customer and a old lady at that. im curious how she would have accessed the ghost login url.

    Also is there a way to change path name from ghost-login to something else customized like our-login? Im sure hackers are learning your plugin and are now searching for the path ghost-login by now

    I couldn’t say how show got to the that login path, however, yes, you can more than sure change it to any custom path you want.

    To do that, as mentioned above, please to go Change Paths > Login Security > Custom wp-login Path.
