Password protection wp-login

wp-admin Directory Password Protection/Basic Auth needs to be setup in your Host control panel. When you create password protection for the wp-admin folder/directory your Host will automatically write/create .htaccess code in the wp-admin .htaccess file probably at the top of the wp-admin .htaccess file. That code added by your Host will look something like this example code below:

AuthType basic
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
AuthUserFile /some-path/.htpasswd
AuthName "Password Protected Area"
require user xxxxx
require valid-user

You then want to copy that code to this BPS wp-admin Custom Code text box: CUSTOM CODE WPADMIN TOP:
Add wp-admin password protection, IP whitelist allow access & miscellaneous custom code here

Click the Save wp-admin Custom Code button.
Go to the BPS Security Modes page and activate wp-admin BulletProof Mode again.

Or if you are just trying to make your login page hidden or only accessible to you then you can use the Simple Query String Login page protection code here: https://forum.ait-pro.com/forums/topic/protect-login-page-from-brute-force-login-attacks/

Hi,

thanks for the quick reply. I think I use the version 1, since I got my wp-login with a user name and would like to password protect.

Thanks a lot

regards

Ok thanks. Thread has been resolved.
