Bad

Hello @elarthur ,

I just tested the custom login url option in a fresh WordPress installation and it worked just as expected on my end. Remember, that you need to log out of your session and clear the browser cache. Then, going to /wp-admin showed a :404 Not Found Page:

If you continue experiencing issues and you are a SiteGround user, please post a support ticket so that we can check and assist you further.

Hello @elarthur ,

I suspect that the issue is most likely caused by a plugin/theme conflict, as such problems usually occur when there is another plugin or a theme setting that customize your WordPress login page. If you use some kind of membership plugin or a theme that leads the login pages to the default WordPress URL, please review their settings.

As for the website restore. There is no need to restore your entire website. You can simply revert the configuration to the default WordPress login URL by including the following snippet in the functions.php file of the active theme:

add_action( 'init', 'remove_custom_login_url' );
function remove_custom_login_url() {
    update_option( 'sg_security_login_type', 'default' );
}
