hi guys,

Admintools help to stop request on "https://domain.com/fr/wp-login.php" more that a hundred time per day as "404shield".

This is great and help a lot.

As I know that this request is called so much per day, wouldn't be more efficient to stop it directly in the htaccess ? Just to relieve Admintools?

And if yes, any advice to write the line ? (sorry i'm not the best htaccess writer ;)

Thanks in advance for your answer...

Hello,

you need to write something like this:

RewriteRule ^fr/wp-login.php$ - [F]

I'm not 100% sure if you need to keep the fr part, since if it's a multilanguage site it should be added by Joomla automatically, maybe it will work without it. Remember to add those rules inside Htaccess Maker Custom .htaccess rules at the top of the file field, so you won't lose those changes when you rebuild the .htaccess file.
