 * Hi
    Both the theme developer and I have been doing some testing on the redirect
   of the renamed login page issue. In all cases I have deactivated all plugins 
   except yours. The theme developers can’t reproduce the problem at all. But I 
   found that with some other themes I tested there was no problem but with one 
   theme (annoyingly the one I am using – which is a very popular theme with a high
   number of other users) I do still get this problem both on my hosted server and
   with a version on Desktop Server. However with the Desktop Server I do at least
   get some error messages. I have taken a screen shot of these and the theme developers
   support have looked at this and say there are no references to their theme or
   functions. Is there some way I can send you the screen shot so you can see these
   messages? Thanks

 * I don’t think its the membership module – as I said I disabled that.
    However
   I have just tried switching from my theme to a default wordpress theme and that
   issue with wp-admin goes away – so I will get in touch with the theme developer
   and see if they are the cause of this issue. I’ll get back to you with an update.
   Thanks for your help so far.

 * I don’t have any cache plugin installed nor any other security plugins (just 
   yours). I do however have a membership plugin. There is a “sign-in” link in the
   footer but there are no login fields on the site as standard. the membership 
   plugin creates a login page on the fly if you go to a “blocked” page – which 
   is the method I am using – i.e. the sign-in link points to a blocked page. I 
   have however now shut down that option but am still getting hit by these multiple
   login attempts.
    If you go to wp-login that goes to a Page Not Found. But wo-
   admin results in a sign-in page like this.. [http://www.mysitename/mysecrectloginname/?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mysitename%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1](http://www.mysitename/mysecrectloginname/?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mysitename%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1)
   I have also added the 3 usernames they are using to the block user names list
   but as they are using multiple ip addresses it only has a limited effect. Any
   more advice would be appreciated. Thanks

 * Hi
    Thanks for response. I did already have the Completely Block Access to XMLRPC
   enabled but not the Disable Pingback feature. I have now enabled that too and
   will get back to you as to whether this has any effect.
 * Do you have any advice / comment on my query about about the rename login feature
   and wp-admin?
    Regards

 * I don’t yet have an answer to the enumeration issue but have changed the IDs 
   of the admin users and have not had any attempts to hack in since. I have also
   tested the feature that renames the login page and it seems to work OK with the
   other plugins I am using.
 * It would be a bonus if AIO WP-Security included something to address the enumeration
   issue but that’s just a nice to have I guess.
 * I’ll mark this issue as resolved now. Thanks for your help.

 * Hi
    I’ll test the effect of rename login page on a test site – thanks.
 * There is quite a lot on the web about this issue but this article explains it
   quite well.
 * [http://www.acunetix.com/blog/articles/wordpress-username-enumeration-using-http-fuzzer/](http://www.acunetix.com/blog/articles/wordpress-username-enumeration-using-http-fuzzer/)
 * There is also a plugin (Stop User Enumeration)to address the issue but not sure
   if it would be compatible with other plugins relating to security and login etc.

 * Hi mbrsolution
    Thanks for fast response.
 * Brute Force – I have only implemented the Honeypot feature but will consider 
   the feature to rename the login page – just worried that it may conflict with
   WP-Members plugin – any thoughts?
 * Admin – The Admin user name had already been replaced, but the name discovered
   did have admin rights.
 * Pingback – Yes I have implemented Pingback Protection.
 * I guess rename of Login page should stop the attacks but user names are still
   discoverable using the domainname.com/?author=n method. Just wondered if All 
   In One would do anything specifically to stop that.

 * Sorry but I deleted the widgets that were giving the problem and have not been
   able to recreate it since implementing your fix.

 * If I scrap the the widgets that were originally causing the problem and start
   again from scratch using the new version then the problem seems to be solved –
   however note that if text from a “corrupt” widget is copied and pasted to a new
   one then it still seems to have the problem. However I can live with that as 
   its not likely to occur. Consider this thread resolved for me now. Thanks – it’s
   a great tool.

 * I am not really knowledgeable enough to do this. Tried replacing the 2 php files(
   kept the original ones) class-admin and class-compatibilty-plugins with those
   on github but got error on class-admin when loging in to wordpress. Are there
   any instructions on how to apply the dev version?

 * I am using version 2.1.6 with WordPress 4.1 within Page Builder 1.5.3 and am 
   getting the same problem with line breaks. If they are added using the visual
   editor or if they are added as <p></p> in the text editor they just disappear
   when the widget is updated. I.e they sometimes work once but if the widget is
   re-opened they then disappear. If there is no text in the widget (it just contains
   images) then the page break doesn’t seem to work any time.
