  • Crap plugin

    If you want to get locked out of your wp-admin download this plugin. If you want to keep using your wp-admin don't download this. It's not that big a deal if you have access to your files but if you don't be warned you will lose access.

  • Can't enter anymore

    After logging in from the new URL, it just goes to the home page and I no longer can enter the admin area. Do people test their code anymore before release? Now I will have to spend all day trying to get back in

  • Very helpful plugin! But ...

    This plugin does exactly what it is supposed to do, with little code and reliably. Very good work! The only drawback: After uninstallation, the database entries “rwal_redirect_field” and “rwal_page” must be deleted manually in the “wp-options” table. ;)
