 * Hello,
 * I have changed my login page to something other than wp-admin, let’s say the 
   new url is :
    mywebsite.com/login
 * Now I want to use the Basic Auth method to password protect this new url using
   htaccess + htpasswd.
 * Is doing such a thing possible ? All the documentation I found online is about
   password protecting wp-admin and applying it as it is doesn’t seem to work.
 * Thank you

 * Hello,
    I advise you to couple wps-hide-login with wps-limit-login.
