Occasionally updated
from wp.org release tags

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Estimated value

What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.

Est. annual revenue

Est. acquisition value

N/A

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

    Simple and effective. It moves my login page to a custom address. Only issue I’ve noticed in wp 5.3 is that I get asked to verify my email when logging in. Trying to do so results in a failed login. Maybe due to this plugin? This topic was modified 6 years, 7 months ago by shawn caza.

    Doesn’t work. Website still loads login page at wp-admin so this plugin is entirely worthless.

    Malheureusement, Move Login n’est pas encore compatible avec WordPress 4.9+

    My site was under brute-force attack. I changed my login page with this plugin, and hackers no longer have access. Of course, you have to take some extra precautions for security, but this plugin protects the login page in a simple and efficient way. Thanks for this plugin!

    It seems to be partially working. I suspect WP broke something.

    Don’t know why I didn’t find “Move Login” first. I already tested 2 alternative free plugins and it was deficient in different ways. “Move Login” is powerful, light and easy to set up. Very nice find. Thanks.
