WPEPP Pro

Manage sign-in and content access

WPEPP Pro is the paid edition of WPEPP - Essential Security, Password Protect & Login Page Customizer. It brings login security, content restrictions, and form styling controls into the WPEPP area of the WordPress dashboard. Visual changes can be reviewed in a live preview before saving.

Set login requirements

Choose a custom URL slug to replace the standard wp-login.php address; the default address then returns a 404 error. You can select where visitors go after logging in and create 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. It follows RFC 6238, offers eight one-time recovery codes, and can be required for selected user roles.

Add Google reCAPTCHA to login and registration forms with a Site Key and Secret Key. Login and registration honeypots, configurable login attempt limits, IP-based tracking and lockouts, and registration rate limiting provide further controls for automated submissions.

Restrict pages and content

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

Conditional Display can display or hide content based on login status, user role, device type, and other available conditions. Protected content can also be set to unlock automatically on a specified expiry date.

Style login and password forms

Use the visual editor to set a login page background color, gradient, image, or video, then style the logo, form, fields, buttons, links, and error messages. Pro also includes styling for registration and lost-password pages.

Password-protected content forms can use custom headers and descriptions, button and label text, input placeholders, error messages, and social media icons. Pro includes two additional password form styles; the plugin provides more than 10 one-click templates overall.

Review security activity

WPEPP includes a checklist of known AI crawlers, including GPTBot, CCBot, and Google-Extended. Preview selected rules before adding them to the site's robots.txt file. Pro also includes a login activity log for reviewing login events.

Start in the dashboard

After installing and activating WPEPP Pro, open WPEPP in the WordPress dashboard. Use the Security area to configure the custom login URL, login limiter, two-factor authentication, or reCAPTCHA. Open Form Style to edit forms, and use the relevant access or editor settings to configure content restrictions. Review visual changes in the live preview before saving.
