Bot attacks using WF URL to access WP login page

    I have the Wordfence (free) plugin installed on a client site that I host. I have very strict brute force protection setup with 2FA. We have been experiencing an extended bot attack for the last 4-6 weeks. I have password-protected the WP login page but the attacks are still coming in via a WF URL.

    The Wordfence administrative URL for this site is: https://domainname.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=Wordfence.

    Is there a way to hide or stop them accessing that login page via the Wordfence URL?

    Hi @deb-lloyd

    Please explain where you are seeing a large amount of request for the …/wp-admin/admin.php?page=Wordfence URL – are you seeing this in your server raw access logs?
