  Hi Team,

  Recently we changed our WordPress admin URL to protect against after a lot of login attempts on the website. However, after changing the admin URL still, we are getting login attempts.

  I wonder how they are finding our new admin URL and could you please confirm that any possible reasons for these login attempts.

  Thank you!!

  Hi there,

  We can’t help directly because we don’t host your site on our WordPress.com managed hosting. As a result we don’t have the ability to take a closer look at your site.

  Instead your host (1st Domains) uses the open-source variant of the WordPress platform which functions differently than what we offer here on WordPress.com. The good news though is that help is available here at the open-source WordPress forums: https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/

  Hope this helps point you in the right direction!
