Hi Max Beta that is very strange. Can you share a print screen of the 404-page error.
Regards
I compared the source code from old login page to another 404 page. I have a text editor that can point out the parts that differ.
1. Page title
(asterisks **** hide the sites regular name)
The old login page use a strange page title
<title>30th November -0001 Archives | ****</title>
The standard 404-page use this
<title>**** | Page not found</title>
2. The old login page is missing the css files in the source code which explains the broken layout. If I use the web inspector and change a css link to the main css file the layout looks ok.
3. The old login page miss some javascript code at the end. There is a comment about W3 Total Cache which is strange since I haven’t even installed a caching plugin yet.
This shows up at the end followed by an inline script and another linked script.

I sent a question to the theme support about this. They said earlier that I should try some other plugins to rename the login page, and these plugins should not cause the same problems. I will try this next to have something to compare to.
The first other plugin I found with WP 4.2.2 compatibility was WPS Hide Login.
I turned off the renamed page feature in WP Security and installed WPS Hide Login. I set it to use the same page name as before. I cleared the cache and loaded /wp-login.php and it takes me to a 404 page without problems.
Hi, does that mean that your issue is fixed with this other plugin that you installed?
I need to use that plugin at the moment so I can move on. But it would be nice if I could use the same feature in WP Security and reduce the number of installed plugins.
Can you share the 404 error page? In the plugin under Firewall there is a 404 Detection tab. Further down you will see the following field 404 Lockout Redirect URL:. Have you tried to add your old 404 URL path in that field?
Can I send the Url via the contact form at your site? It’s a client page so I don’t want to post it here.
Yes you can, you will find my contact form when you click on my name mbrsolution.
I am marking this thread as resolved. No reply in 9 months.
Thank you
