# Hide or redirect wp-login.php

 * Hi,
 * Is there a way to prevent visitors, whether logged in or not, from reaching mysite.
   com/wp-login.php ?
 * I have a separate login form that is all we need. I know I can re-style the form
   generated by wp-login but I’d rather not have to deal with it at all. I’ve tried
   various filters and hooks and I can’t seem to get it to redirect. I also tried
   using a .htaccess redirect and I found that this works, but then it prevents 
   my custom login/logout form from working.
 * Ideas?
 * TIA,
 * —JC
