## Àpèjúwe

This plugin will hide WordPress Admin (/wp-admin/) when a user isnÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá:’
t logged in. If a user isnÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t logged in and they attempt to access
WP Admin directly, they will be unable to and it will return a 404. It can also 
rename the login URL.

Also, you can add HTTP authentication directly from WP Admin and add custom username/
password combinations for the HTTP auth or use the WordPress credentials.

This doesnÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t touch any .htaccess files or change the WordPress core
files. All the CSS/Images under /wp-admin/ are still accessible, just not the .php
ones.

If you enable HTTP authentication, it will add HTTP authentication to the PHP files
in /wp-admin/.

To contribute to the development, check out [the GitHub Repository](https://github.com/srtfisher/Lockdown-WPAdmin).

## Ìgbéwọlẹ̀

 1. Upload `/lockdown-wp-admin/` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Navigate to the “Lockdown WP” menu

## FAQ

  Installation Instructions

 1. Upload `/lockdown-wp-admin/` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Navigate to the “Lockdown WP” menu

  How can we add files to the white list to hide from the public eye? We want to
have AJAX and use a custom file, but we canÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t because it hides it
from the public.

You can add a file using the ‘no_check_files’ filter. Use this:

    ```
            function add_my_cool_filter($data)
            {
                // You have to accept the $data argument or else it will cause a system meltdown ;)
                $data[] = 'my-file-name.php';   //  JUST the file name.
                return $data;
            }
            add_filter('no_check_files', 'add_my_cool_filter');
    ```

Simple.

  How can I get back in if Lockdown WP Admin locked me out?

You can create a .txt file named ‘disable_auth.txt’ in your `wp-content/plugins/
lockdown-wp-admin/` folder (The file location would be `/wp-content/plugins/lockdown-
wp-admin/disable_auth.txt`). We donÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t care about the content but 
that will disable the HTTP Auth and whatever was locking you out of your site.

Still working perfectly in the current version of wordpress. It stops all those 
annoying bot attacks that any wordpress site gets. Still recommended.

available for longer use.

IÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’m posting this because we as ‘users’, sometimes take for granted
the efforts of plugin authors and seem only to comment when we are ‘whining’ or ‘
complaining’. Mostly because many do not simply follow the install procedures, so
seek to blame the Author. The Problem : All WP users have is security because your
site is constantly under threat. Unless your sitting there watching, one morning
youÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’ll get up and your site has been damaged by some malicious idiot!
The Plugin : As of : 07-10-18 this gem of a plugin is still working strong with 
the latest WP version! Whilst it has not been updated for a few years, itÌtumọ̀ 
Yorùbá: ’s still working and does so very effectively against potential threats 
as wouldbe hackers canÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t find how to log into your site. ItÌtumọ̀
Yorùbá: ’s a near impossibility to do so and soon, they give up and choose an easier
target. My Two Cents : So for what itÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s worth to the Author, very
well done for this and can only hope they re-visit this plugin to add any additional
elements. I would certainly make a donation toward it if they were to resume and
continue maintaining it! ItÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s lightweight, it works…simple as that!

This plugin is simple and easy to setup. I have been using it for two years but 
with the last Wordpress actualisation (4.9.8) it stopped working. I was locked out
and was not able to access to panel administration. I had to delete the plugin. 
What a pity.
