How to change the admin login url

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

Just wanted to know what is the code necessary to move the url to another one desired for added security. And once I get there, to have a alert box or umm some sort of box asking me for username and passwoerd and thats it. Of course with all the other features such as..."entered wrong password"...and etc.

 

Thanks,

Tim

Do you mean instead of www.yourdomain/catalog/admin you want it www.yourdomain/catalog/newadmin? To do this, rename the admin folder, and make the necessary changes in the two configure.php files. Just enter the new directory name instead of admin in those files.

Do a search on .htaccess secuity for admin. Lots of information and very secure, as well as easy to setup.

 

Here is one Admin Security with htaccess

Hi and thanks for the info, I will do this right now. As for the htaccess I currently run a Windows server and not Unix. And suggesstions for use without Htaccess?
