Locked me out of the admin screen

    The username and password fields would go blank when I hit “Login” or enter. It did disable the wp-admin screen. Unfortunately I couldn’t login via the plugin to fix anything.

    I had to go into the htaccess file and delete the secure login code to get back into the admin screen to disable the plugin.

    I’m unsure of why the Username/Password Fields are simply going blank when you click the Log In button, but any help you can provide as to what additional plugins or themes you might have that may be causing a conflict will help.

    I’m unable to duplicate this, and have not heard of this issue and the plugin currently has 3000+ downloads.

    Also, you should read the FAQ. It has an answer for this issue. SImply just needed to upload a page that will send you to the wp-admin page from your site. The .htaccess code put in by Secure Hidden Login simply makes sure that the ‘HTTP REFERRER’ is your own site.

    People put hard work into plugins, and to come on and rate it 1 start because you had an issue and did not even attempt to resolve it with the plugin author is very rude.

    I hate people like dustinkjeffers [at] gmail.com. He did nothing and can rate a job of smart people, and I understand author Alex M! Keep going! Good plugin!
