How to Find Your WordPress Login URLThe login page is the door between your WordPress website and the management dashboard of your site, which is also known as the admin area. Once logged in to the WordPress admin dashboard, you can create new posts, add new pages, change your design, add WordPress plugins, and more. On a typical WordPress install with a good WordPress hosting provider, all you need to do is add /login/ or /admin/ to the end of your site’s URL. For example: www.example.com/admin/ www.example.com/login/Don’t forget to replace ‘example.com’ with your own domain name. Both of these URLs will redirect you to the WordPress login page. If, for some reason, your WordPress login URL is not working properly, then you can easily access the WordPress login page by going to this URL: www.example.com/wp-login.phpHowever, if you installed WordPress in a subdirectory such as /wordpress/, then you would need to access your WordPress blog login page like this: www.example.com/wordpress/login/ www.example.com/wordpress/wp-login.phpIf you installed WordPress on a subdomain, then you can access the WordPress admin login page like so: subdomain.example.com/login/ subdomain.example.com/wp-login.phpOnce you are logged in, you will be redirected to the WordPress admin area of your site, which is located in the wp-admin folder. You can directly access your admin area by entering the website admin URL like this: www.example.com/admin/ www.example.com/wp-admin/This URL checks if you were previously logged in and if your session is still active. If both are true, then you will be redirected to the WordPress dashboard. If your session has expired, then you will be redirected back to the WordPress login page. Using ‘Remember Me’ to Bypass Login Page in WordPressOn your WordPress login page, there is a checkbox labeled ‘Remember Me’. When you check this box before you log in, it will allow you to directly access the admin area without asking for login credentials on your subsequent visits for 14 days or your browser’s cookie settings. If you always want to stay logged in, then you can read our article on how to keep WordPress from forgetting you. This guide can show you how to make sure you’re always signed in using code and a plugin. Adding a Login Link to Your WordPress WebsiteIf you find it difficult to remember your WordPress login link, then we recommend you add a bookmark to your browser’s bookmark bar. Alternatively, you can add your WordPress login link on your website header, footer, or sidebar. There are two very easy ways to do this. Adding a Login Link to a Menu The first option is adding your WordPress login link to the navigation menu. Simply log in to your WordPress admin area and go to Appearance » Menus. Next, click on the ‘Custom Links’ tab to expand it and add your WordPress login link and text. Once you are done, click on the ‘Add to Menu’ button to add this link to your menu. Also, don’t forget to save changes by clicking on the ‘Save Menu’ button. Using the Meta Widget The second option is to use the default widget called ‘Meta’. This widget adds a link to the login page, links to your site’s RSS feeds, and a link to the WordPress.org website. Start by going to Appearance » Widgets in your WordPress admin panel and click the ‘+ Block Inserter’ button. You need to find the Meta widget and drag it to your website’s sidebar or widget-ready area. If you don’t want to use the Meta widget, then you can use the Navigation Menu widget here as well. You can add the WordPress login link in the footer, sidebar, or any other widget-ready area in your theme. Adding a Custom WordPress Login Form in WordPressIf you have multiple users on your WordPress blog, then it makes sense to add the WordPress login form to the sidebar or create a custom login page that matches your site’s design. There are multiple ways to do that, but we recommend using the SeedProd page builder plugin. It allows you to create custom login pages with a drag-and-drop page builder. It includes plenty of professionally-designed templates, or you can design your own page from scratch. You can also use WPForms to create your own custom login forms with additional form fields. It is the best WordPress contact form plugin and allows you to easily create login forms and add them anywhere on your website. Learn more in our article on how to create a completely custom login page. If you are looking to customize the login form just to remove the language switcher, we have a guide on that, too.
