Step 3 – Admin Credentials

< 1 min read

You have the ability to set a password to enhance the security of your website’s admin panel. Deflect will protect your admin panel with a password protected page. This password should be shared with administrators or editors requiring access to the safeguarded page.

Adding a password-protected page with an Admin key enhances your website’s security and prevents editors from viewing the cached version of the website after publishing a new post. More detailed information about this feature can be found on this page.

Specify your website’s login URL. For example, default URL for the following web content systems editorials are:

  • WordPress: /wp-admin
  • Drupal: /admin
  • Joomla: /administrator

Copy and paste whatever login URL is appropriate for your website, you only need to put in the URL that appears after the domain name. It should not include any hashtag (#) or question mark (?).
