Allow users to do the double log in by first entering their password on their Wordpress self-hosting blog, THEN require them to either enter a code sent to their email or cell phone(preferably) in order to log in AND keep tabs on the IP logins to that wordpress blog.

I try to keep the WP version up-to-date on all of the sites I run, but due to the customisations, although I try to avoid them, a number of core hacks do come into play. When I upgrade a site, it's a very long job to double check every change and make modifications according to my log and the WP changelog.

What I would really like to see is a way to override core files, built into the core. For example...

wp-admin/user-edit.php
could be overridden by
wp-admin/user-edit-hack.php

Then I can just upgrade my hacks to work with an upgraded core and not touch the actual core. It just seems tidier and a clean way to do it.

I know this sort of thing is probably not a good idea and possibly open to abuse, but it's an idea all the same :)

The less it looks/is built like default WP, the harder it is to attack known vulnerabilities. Being able to rename those directories can help stop an exploit dead in its tracks.

Another good post on this
