Change Paths in Admin Dashboard

This solution ensures that WordPress paths are customized not only on the frontend but also within the admin backend, enhancing security further.

Before changing the paths

  • Changing paths in the admin backend may affect compatibility with plugins or themes that depend on default WordPress paths.
  • Always create a full backup of your site before making these changes.
  • Verify that everything works as expected after enabling this feature.

To change the WordPress paths in the admin dashboard using WP Ghost, follow these steps:

  1. Use an FTP client (like FileZilla) or your web hosting file manager to access your site’s files.
  2. Open the wp-config.php file in the root directory of your WordPress installation.
  1. Insert the following line of code anywhere before the line that says:
/* That's all, stop editing! Happy publishing. */define('HMW_ALWAYS_CHANGE_PATHS', true);
  1. Save the changes and upload the file back to the server (if using FTP).
  2. Back to Admin Dashboard, go to WP Ghost > Change Paths section.
  3. Click the Save button to apply the changes.
