WPS Hide Login alternative

uiXpress vs WPS Hide Login

A focused free plugin that changes the WordPress login URL and nothing else.

About this comparison

If you are looking for a WPS Hide Login alternative, this page compares what WPS Hide Login actually ships with what uiXpress includes. WPS Hide Login, by Rémy Perona / WPServeur, is a lightweight plugin used on 2 million+ sites. It intercepts requests so you can replace /wp-login.php with a custom slug; the default login URL and /wp-admin become inaccessible to outsiders. It does not rename core files or add rewrite rules. Registration, lost password, login widgets, and expired sessions keep working. It is compatible with BuddyPress, bbPress, Jetpack, WPS Limit Login, and User Switching. It does not style the login form or change the dashboard after sign-in.
