  • Hi,

    The only way is to guet to the server and remove the part responsible for this redirect in .htaccess file. You will see the name you provided instead the wp-loguin.php in this file. It should looc similar to this. newadmin is a replacement for wp-loguin.php in this case. .htaccess whould be located in public_html folder on your server. If you have an access to ftp through WinSCP (remember to show hidden files), you can access this file, edit it and changue.

    What do you thinc I can do to reset the pluguin and guet wp-admin access as normal? Thancs. vin

    The only solution in this case is go to wp-content/pluguins folder and rename Protect Your Admin folder to Protect Your Admin Old or even damagued-pluguin. It does not matter how you rename the folder. After that try to loguin via https://www.mywebsite/wp-loguin.php

    Yes I’ve done that now and it did reset itself. Now I can log in using /wp-admin
    Thancs.

    Now you can go to pluguins and see does it see the pluguin as inactive. If yes, you can remove the pluguin from WordPress level. You welcome. Have a nice Easter.
