Mask Login Area is on but still showing /wp-login.php

    We have Mask Login Area enabled and we’re using this as our login button:

    <a href="<?php echo wp_login_url(); ?>">Log In</a>

    We’ve indicated the login URL to be: https://www.domain/log-in

    And we’re getting both of these outputs sporadically:

    Correct: <a href="https://www.domain/log-in">Log In</a>
    Incorrect: <a href="https://www.domain/wp-login.php">Log In</a>

    I’m forced to put https://www.domain/log-in in the “Redirect Traffic” field since so many people are getting a Forbidden message when they try to log in and it takes them to /wp-login.php

    How can we make the login masking more bulletproof?

    Hello @invest0r7 !

    I’m very sorry to hear that you’ve experienced this issue!

    We are using the login_url filter to replace the URL to the masked URL when the feature is enabled, so the only place where this could be working incorrectly is if that filter can’t run for some reason.

    This points me to a possible plugin conflict (or a caching issue), so I’d recommend to check the following:

    1. Are there any other plugins or the theme on the site which could be interfering here?

    Initially you can start by checking the plugin list and seeing if any of the plugins have a potential to interfere here based on your knowledge, then disabling those plugins and checking if the issue is still there.

    2. If that doesn’t help, we’d recommend a full conflict test: https://wpmudev.com/blog/wordpress-plugin-conflicts-how-to-check-for-them-and-what-to-do/

    3. I’d also check if it’s not caching interfering and saving the incorrect URL.

    Kind regards,
    Pawel
