I tested some rewrite rules, and I see that it’d be easy to hide the actual wp-login.php.
I was optimistic until I looked at the source for the wp-login.php file. The filename is hardcoded all over the place. Even where it doesn’t have to be; ie, the form action. So there’s no way my idea would work.
But talk about a culture shock; coming from Rails programming, paths and filenames are never hardcoded. The path can be changed in one spot.
still needs to take the post request to process login however
I guess that the login form would need to be modified to include the key as a hidden variable.
Ah hah, I see. wp-login.php is something of a beast, performing a lot of roles.
For now, I’m just going to manually rename my wp-login.php file. The only problem with that is possible issues when I upgrade wordpress.
I wonder if there’d be a way to do the same thing, without actually changing a filename? Some kind of set of Apache rules, maybe: first, 404 the wp-login.php path. Then, add some kind of rewrite or proxy rule for the alternate path to the file…
If only searching the WP Better Security support forum was reasonably easy. It’s not.
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [BJ Lazy Load] [Plugin: BJ Lazy Load] Conflict with related postsI’ve got this issue as well and am looking into it. Have you found a solution?
This is by design. Read the release notes for v. 1.6.
The plugin is working correctly: The problem is that Yahoo’s smush.it service is not 100% available.
And so the plugin v. 1.6 now accounts for this; detecting if the service is down and gracefully handing this error condition.

Forum: Everything else WordPress
In reply to: Featured themes section – boring!I saw your post – I’m wondering about the process, but for a different reason. I’d like to build a system that automatically tests the themes against YSlow or PageSpeed. I found out the hard way that a poorly written theme can take down an entire server.
In my scheme, each theme would be listed with its Page Speed rating, in addition to the star ratings.
