WPEPP Pro for WordPress Login and Content Access

Login controls for WordPress

WPEPP Pro is the paid edition of WPEPP, with security, access, and form styling options in the WordPress dashboard. It lets you change the login URL, add extra verification, manage access to site content, and personalize login and password forms. Visual changes can be reviewed in a live preview before saving.

When sign-ins need extra checks

Set a custom URL slug to replace the standard wp-login.php address. When enabled, the default address returns a 404 error. You can choose where visitors go after a successful login and generate secure, one-time auto-login links for specific users.

Two-factor authentication uses TOTP. Users scan a QR code with Google Authenticator, Authy, Microsoft Authenticator, or another TOTP app. The implementation follows RFC 6238, offers eight one-time recovery codes, and can be required for selected user roles.

Google reCAPTCHA can be added to login and registration forms; setup requires a Site Key and Secret Key. WPEPP also includes login and registration honeypots, configurable login attempt limits, IP-based tracking, and IP lockouts after repeated failed attempts. Registration rate limiting helps control mass signup submissions. Pro also includes a login activity log.

For website-wide or selected content access

Site access control can require visitors to log in before viewing the site. For narrower restrictions, Pro can lock individual posts or pages from the editor sidebar. The Member Only page template shows a login form to logged-out visitors and the page content after they log in.

Conditional Display can display or conceal content blocks based on login status, user role, device type, and other available conditions. Protected content can have an auto-expiry date.

Form styling in the visual editor

Customize the login page background with a color, gradient, picture, or video. You can upload a logo and style the form, input fields, buttons, links, and error messages. Pro adds styling controls for registration and lost-password pages.

Password-protected content can use branded forms with custom header and description text, button and label text, input placeholders, error messages, and social media icons. Pro adds two password form styles. More than 10 one-click templates are available overall.

Additional security settings

The AI crawler blocker provides a checklist of known bots, including GPTBot, CCBot, and Google-Extended. Preview selected rules before adding them to the site's robots.txt file.

Configure WPEPP Pro

Install and activate WPEPP Pro in WordPress, then open WPEPP in the dashboard. Use Security to configure the custom login URL, login limiter, two-factor authentication, or reCAPTCHA. Open Form Style for visual edits, and set content restrictions in the relevant access settings or editor controls. Review visual changes in the live preview before saving.
