    I’ve been using this plugin – and the rename login page – for some time very effectively! I’m setting up a new site and install the plugin, activating the usual features and set a renamed login page, but attempting to access it give an odd error page (page name change here for display):

    Not Found
    The requested URL /xyz was not found on this server.
    Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

    there are really no other plugins installed at this point, though I have several I use without issue on other sites setup the same on the same server.

    I’ve had to disable the feature for now, but wish to have it working as it’s the most effective anti-annoyance for drive by hack attempts!
    Any ideas?

    Hi @captainswallow,
    Have you checked whether you might have permalink settings set to plain, and if that’s the case then your hidden login URL will have a different format:
    yoursite.com/?xyz

    Brilliant – that’s what it was. “Custom” permalink seems to be the default lately, switched it back to ‘posts’ where it should be and everything works as expected! Thank ye.
