설명
MaskMyAdmin is a lightweight WordPress plugin designed to enhance your login page security by:
– Replacing the default wp-admin and wp-login.php URLs with a custom login path of your choice
– Enforcing IP-based access controls for the WordPress dashboard and login screen
– Preventing unauthorized access or brute-force attempts by obscuring default login endpoints
Designed for site owners and developers who want to hide their admin panel from bots, attackers, or curious users.
Whether you’re running a blog, WooCommerce store, or enterprise WordPress install — MaskMyAdmin gives you a simple, intuitive way to lock down your admin entry points.
Features:
* Change wp-admin login path to a custom one (e.g., /secure-login)
* Optional IP-based whitelist — restrict dashboard access to specific IPs only
* Redirect blocked attempts to a custom page or homepage
* Progressive brute-force lockout (15 min 1 hour 24 hours)
* Activity log for login attempts and settings changes
* Email notifications for blocked IPs, failed logins, and settings changes
* Configurable proxy/CDN header for accurate IP detection (Cloudflare, Nginx, etc.)
* WP-CLI commands for emergency recovery and management
* Emergency disable via wp-config.php constant
* Defense-in-depth .htaccess rules for Apache servers (PHP handles all server types)
* Lightweight and fast — minimal performance impact
* Clean uninstall — all data removed when plugin is deleted

FAQ
How do I change the admin URL?
After activating the plugin, go to MaskMyAdmin in the admin menu and enter your desired login slug (e.g.,
my-login). Your admin URL will becomeyourdomain.com/my-login.What happens to wp-login.php and wp-admin?
Both
wp-login.phpand/wp-adminaccess will redirect to the homepage or a custom URL (configurable), effectively hiding them from bots or attackers.How do I enable IP whitelisting?
Under the plugin settings (Advanced Security tab), you can enable IP whitelisting and enter allowed IP addresses. Only visitors from these IPs will be able to access the login page.
I’m behind Cloudflare / a proxy. How do I get the correct IP?
Go to Advanced Security Proxy / CDN Configuration and select the appropriate header for your setup (e.g., “Cloudflare” for CF-Connecting-IP).
What if I get locked out?
You have several recovery options:
- WP-CLI: Run
wp maskmy disableto disable all protections - wp-config.php: Add
define('MASKMY_DISABLE', true);to bypass the plugin entirely - FTP: Rename the plugin folder via FTP or your hosting File Manager
- WP-CLI: Run
Does this work with Nginx?
Yes. The plugin uses PHP for all URL masking and IP enforcement, which works on any server. The .htaccess rules are an additional layer for Apache servers only.
How long are activity logs kept?
Log entries older than 30 days are automatically cleaned up daily via WP-Cron.
What WP-CLI commands are available?
MaskMyAdmin registers the
wp maskmycommand namespace with the following subcommands:wp maskmy status— Show current configuration (login slug, redirect mode, IP whitelist status, allowed IPs, proxy header)wp maskmy reset— Reset the login URL back to the WordPress default (wp-login.php)wp maskmy add-ip <ip>— Add an IP address or CIDR range to the whitelist (e.g.,wp maskmy add-ip 192.168.1.100orwp maskmy add-ip 10.0.0.0/24)wp maskmy remove-ip <ip>— Remove an IP address or CIDR range from the whitelist (auto-disables whitelist if the list becomes empty)wp maskmy disable— Disable all protections immediately (resets login slug, redirect, and IP whitelist — useful for emergency recovery)wp maskmy enable --slug=<slug>— Re-enable protections with a custom login slug (e.g.,wp maskmy enable --slug=my-login). If--slugis omitted, re-enables with the previously saved slug.
