Have you ever wanted to change the default WordPress login URL to something friendly and easy to remember?
We’re going to change the URL http://www.mywebsite.com/wp-login.php to http://www.mywebsite.com/login
Edit the .htaccess file in the root folder of your website and add the following line:
RewriteRule ^login$ http://www.mywebsite.com/wp-login.php [NC,L]Replace mywebsite.com with your own domain name.
You can of course use anything else to replace login too.
