## Description

AccessDoor helps you customize and secure the WordPress login experience.

Change the default WordPress login URL to a custom login address and create separate
login URLs for different user roles. You can also manage administrator usernames
and user email addresses, customize the WordPress login screen, and enable additional
security hardening options from a single settings page.

AccessDoor includes 8 built-in security features designed to help reduce common 
WordPress attack surfaces, including disabling XML-RPC, REST API access, file editing,
directory browsing, PHP execution in the uploads directory, comments, and pingbacks.

The plugin provides a simple settings interface so administrators can configure 
login and security options without modifying theme or core files.

### Key Features

 * Change the default WordPress admin login URL (**wp-admin**) to a **custom login
   URL**.
 * Create **role-based login URLs** for different WordPress user roles, including
   custom roles.
 * Instantly **change the administrator username**.
 * Update **administrator and user email addresses without confirmation emails**.
 * Help protect against **common or predictable administrator usernames and email
   addresses**.
 * Customize the WordPress login screen with a **custom logo, background color, 
   or background image**.
 * **Block or redirect access** to wp-login.php and wp-admin based on your configuration.
 * Enable **8 built-in security hardening features** from a single settings page.
