WPS Hide Login is a very light plugin that lets you easily and safely change the url of the login form page to anything you want. It doesn’t literally rename or change files in core, nor does it add rewrite rules. It simply intercepts page requests and works on any WordPress website. The wp-admin directory and wp-login.php page become inaccessible, so you should bookmark or remember the url. Deactivating this plugin brings your site back exactly to the state it was before.
This plugin is kindly proposed by WPServeur the specialized WordPress web host.

The opening of the plugin's own description. The full text, installation notes and changelog are on its WordPress.org page.
Either go to your MySQL database and look for the value of whl_page in the options table, or remove the wps-hide-login folder from your plugins folder, log in through wp-login.php and reinstall the plugin.
On a multisite install the whl_page option will be in the sitemeta table, if there is no such option in the options table.
You have to give the url. example: /login?action=register or /login?action=lostpassword
But there is no redirection via the plugin, the default URL of WordPress (/wp-login.php?action=register or /wp-login.php?action=lostpassword) otherwise everyone could know the url of administration of your site.
This case can come from plugins modifying your .htaccess files to add or change rules, or from an old WordPress MU configuration not updated since Multisite was added.
First step is to check your .htaccess file and compare it to a regular one, to see if the problem comes from it.
Allez dans votre base de données MySQL et recherchez la valeur de ‘whl_page’ dans la table des options, ou supprimez le dossier ‘wps-hide-login’ de votre dossier ‘plugins’, connectez-vous via wp-login.php et réinstallez le plugin .
Sur une installation multisite, l’option ‘whl_page’ sera dans la table de sitemeta, si l’option n’existe pas dans la table des options.
Il vous faut donner l’url. exemple : /login?action=register ou /login?action=lostpassword
Mais il n’y pas de redirection via le plugin, de l’url par défaut de WordPress (/wp-login.php?action=register ou /wp-login.php?action=lostpassword) sinon tout le monde pourrait connaître l’url d’administration de votre site.
Ce cas peut provenir de plugins modifiant vos fichiers .htaccess pour ajouter ou modifier des règles, ou d’une ancienne configuration de WordPress MU non mise à jour depuis l’ajout de Multisite.
La première étape consiste à vérifier votre fichier .htaccess et à le comparer à un fichier .htaccess normal, pour voir si le problème provient de ce fichier.
