    As far as I know Wordfence never provided any option to change wp-admin or wp-login.php URLs. Yopu might be using some other plug-in to do so.

    Yeah, Wordfence never had that option, in fact it’s against their religion to use security by obscurity — though they do sin by providing country blocking in premium ver. Plugin WPS Hide Login does the job. Recommended. MTN

    Hi @jamesv
    Indeed, Wordfence doesn’t have an option to change wp-admin/wp-login.php URLs, also please take care that admin-ajax.php is a very important file for many themes/plugins and it must be accessible on your website, this file’s location is in “wp-admin” folder, so just make sure you aren’t blocking access to it, if so, many plugins/theme will stop working.

    I recommend watching this video regarding “Should You Hide Your WordPress Login Page?“.

    Thanks.
