In reply to: Update to WP 5.4 requires htaccess installed on wp-adminHallo Jürgen,
ich habe das Addon installiert, das ich in meinem letzten Post genannt habe, und das admin-Verzeichnis umbenannt. Seitdem wurde kein Anmeldeversuch irgendwelcher Roboter mehr probiert.
Ich sehe dadurch keinen Bedarf mehr an htaccess für meine Homepage, da die Roboter der einzige Grund für mich waren, einen zusätzlichen Passwortschutz einzubauen.Gruß und bleib gesund

In reply to: Update to WP 5.4 requires htaccess installed on wp-adminI have a solution:
I installed a plugin named “rename wp login” and removed the htaccess.
Now, I hope that no robot can find the backend login.Thanks for the assistance.

In reply to: Update to WP 5.4 requires htaccess installed on wp-adminIt’s strange…
It seems that the htaccess password is not really required but the window is shown. The homepage works even if I press “abbrechen” (escape).
And this windows only appears on my private computer (Firefox with Windows 10). And on the computer of a friend (FF with Windows 10).
On the computer at work, this window doesn’t appear (tested Windows 10 with Firefox and IE). Also on my mobile phone (Android with Firefox) the htaccess window doesn’t appear.
As there are the same FF versions at work as at home, I can’t imagine what the problem may be.Maybe somebody has an idea?
The only idea I have is to deactivate the FF plugins one after the other and to see what happens.
But why did it work until WP 5.3? There was no update for FF or the FF plugins before I installed WP 5.4.

In reply to: Update to WP 5.4 requires htaccess installed on wp-adminHello,
thank you. But this didn’t work.
I have no plugin installed for this htaccess. I installed it in the backend of the my hoster.
I uninstalled the htaccess in the backend of the hoster, then it worked. Also, I looked at the htaccess in the root directory of the homepage and I updated it to the default from the link you posted. Everything was ok, but no password when starting the WP backend.
So I reinstalled the htacces in the backend of the hoster. Now the htaccess ist active again when I start the homepage. It’s like before, no change.
I think that WP 5.4 accesses to wp-admin different from WP 5.3 and that’s why htaccess starts. If there ist no other way, I must uninstall htaccess in wp-admin. But I would like to keep it.
