Login Gatekeeper adds an extra layer of security to your WordPress login page by requiring a custom key and value in the login URL (e.g. <code>/wp-login.php?secret=myvalue</code>). You can restrict which user roles require the key, helping to prevent brute force and bot login attempts.
Stealth Protection: 
The plugin does not modify the appearance or behavior of the default WordPress login page. Anyone accessing the login page without the correct secret and value will see the standard WordPress error message, even if they enter the correct username and password. This means attackers cannot detect that extra protection is in place.
Easily configure your login key, value, and restricted roles from the WordPress admin settings page. The plugin also includes a risk confirmation step to prevent accidental lockout.
Lost your secret or value? 
If you forget your login key or value, you can use the default WordPress “Lost your password?” feature. The secret key and value will be included in the password reset email, allowing you to regain access without needing to disable the plugin.
Features:
<ul>
<li>Require a custom key/value in the login URL</li>
<li>Restrict login by user role</li>
<li>Easy-to-use settings page</li>
<li>Prevents brute force and bot login attempts</li>
<li>No visible changes to the login page for added stealth</li>
