Topic : Loginizer - Renaming the WP-Admin Area not working

Posted By: IssHell on September 13, 2020, 4:16 pm

Hello,

My base URL is https://buenavista.investments

I'm trying to update the wp-admin URL. I have applied the following steps:

1. Update .htaccess with (note: no other entry exist in .htaccess):

# BEGIN Loginizer
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase RELATIVE_URL/
RewriteRule ^site-admin(.*) wp-admin$1 [L]
</IfModule>
# END Loginizer

2. Restart Apache

3. enter site-admin to the New wp-admin Slug

4. Check the 'I have setup .htaccess' box

5. Click the 'Test New WP-Admin Slug'

I'm getting a 'There was an error connecting to WordPress with the new Admin Slug. Did you configure everything properly ?' error message.

Hi,

Sorry for the inconvenience caused.

Please replace the following line :
RewriteBase RELATIVE_URL/

with :
RewriteBase /

Thank you for the response, do you have a solution for Apache server using vhost configuration?

Your answer redirect to the server root rather than the host root.

Regards,
Victor

I got a solution, for anyone looking at this issue.

I added the below line to the Apache http.conf:

<Directory /var/www/html>
Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
AllowOverride All
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</Directory>
