Adding a Login Link to Your WordPress Site
Maybe you’re struggling to remember your WordPress login URL. One option is to bookmark the login page on your browser. But what if other writers, editors, or assistants need to access your site?

You can add a login link to your WordPress site. The simplest way to do this is to add the built-in “Meta” widget to your sidebar or footer.

Go to Appearance→Widgets, then click the “Add Block” button for either your Sidebar Widget Area or your Footer Widget Area.

Next, select the “Meta” widget. You can do this either using the “Browse All” option or argentina phone number material by typing /meta into the search bar.

You can then give your widget a title, e.g. “Admin Links”. Make sure you hit the “Update” button on the top right to save your changes.

When you’re logged out, your meta widget will display like this, with the “Log in” link at the top:

If you don’t want to have multiple different links, another option is to add a “Paragraph” widget to your sidebar or footer. Type in “Login” and make that word a link to your login page:

How to Log Out of WordPress (in 1 Click)
You’ve logged in … but how do you log back out again?

In many cases, it’s fine to leave your admin account logged in to WordPress. If you’re using your own computer or device, there’s generally no need to log out – especially if your computer/device is password-protected.

If you’re using a public computer or shared computer, however, it’s important for your WordPress security to log out once you’re done.

Many WordPress users get stuck trying to find the log out link. It’s not at all obvious! To get to it, you need to hover your mouse over the “Howdy, Name” link at the top right of your WordPress admin area.

You’ll then see a small dropdown menu with the “Log Out” option.
