Hello,
Thanks for using WPS Hide Login.
WPS Hide Login doesn’t work with ? in the slug. You should remove it.
To log in, you’ll have to deactivate the plugin reaching your files by FTP. Rename the plugin folder in wp-content/plugins.
There is no ? in the slug, I’m using login as the slug. Since the default permalinks setting is “Plain”, the login link becomes http://example.com/?login, but the point is that the link works fine and I can access the login page using this link.
But once I updated the permalinks settings to “Post name”, the login link becomes http://example.com/login, and this link is not working, it returns a 404.
I’ve also tried re-enabling/reinstalling the plugin, renaming the plugin folder, but still the same result.
Got same issue since 2 days ago, renamed the wp-admin to xxxxx in the plugin setting page, was working fine, but it redirect to 402 and I can’t access dashboard to disable/edit plug in setting . Pleas provide instructions on how to disable or reset it.

That’s the way WordPress works. Plain permalinks add ? in slugs. Then, even if you set WPS Hide Login with “/login” as secret slug, it will be renamed by WordPress : /?login. And then, it won’t work because it will be different from the slug you set up.
I’m not using “Plain” as the permalink structure, I’m using “Post name”, so what I can see under the “WPS Hide Login” section is
Login url http://example.com/login/
But it returns a 404 error.
What’s the preferred permalink structure to make this URL works?
Hello,
Did you refresh permalinks after your change ?
Did you try to deactivate every plugins except WPS Hide Login to check if any conflict occured ?
Hi there I am having a similar issue.
I have our new login link bookmarked and sometimes I get 404 and sometimes I get our login page.
Once it forwarded to 404 there is no way of getting onto the login page. if I use a different browser with the same link it usually works. But this is very annoing.
Can you please help?
