FAQ
Can I damage my site with the Search and Replace module?
Yes! Database operations are powerful. Entering a wrong search or replace string could break your site. Always perform a Backup (using Module 3) before running a Search & Replace operation. Use the “Dry Run” feature first to verify what will be changed.
Can I restore database on a different domain?
Yes, SurfLink supports restoring database on a different domain (WordPress Multisite Installation).
Can I restore the database backup on a different table prefix?
Yes, SurfLink automatically handles differences in database table prefixes.
Why do I see a 404 error or get redirected when trying to access default wp-login.php after a restore?
This issue can occur if the login session expires after restoration and the active login security plugins interfere with your access to wp-login.php. There are two possible causes:
-
1. Login Security Plugins (WPS Hide Login, Loginizer, etc.)
-
The Issue: Third-party login security plugins may block access to
wp-login.phpor change the login URL. After a restore if login session expires, these settings may cause 404 errors or unwanted redirects if you try to access wp-login.php default login page.Solutions to try:
Option 1: Use your custom login URL (if known)
– If you remember the custom login slug configured in the other plugin, access it directly
– Example:yourdomain.com/your-custom-login-slugOption 2: Deactivate via FTP/File Manager
-
Connect to your site using an FTP client (like FileZilla) or your hosting control panel’s File Manager
-
Navigate to the plugins folder:
- Go to:
wp-content/plugins/
- Go to:
-
Deactivate the conflicting plugin by renaming its folder:
- Find the plugin’s folder (e.g.,
wps-hide-login,loginizer, etc.) - Rename it by adding
-disabledto the folder name - Example: Rename
wps-hide-logintowps-hide-login-disabled - This automatically deactivates the plugin
- Find the plugin’s folder (e.g.,
-
Log in normally:
- Go to
yourdomain.com/wp-login.php - Log in with your credentials
- Go to
-
Decide which plugin to use:
- Go to Plugins delete the disabled plugin (optional)
- Configure SurfLink’s Login Security if you want to use SurfLink instead
- Important: Don’t enable multiple login security plugins simultaneously
-
-
2. SurfLink’s LoginHider Feature is ON
-
The Solution:
Option 1: Use your custom login URL (if known)
– If you remember the custom login slug configured in the plugin, access it directly with your current domain
– Example:yourdomain.com/your-custom-login-slugOption 2: Deactivate via FTP/File Manager
– If grace period is over and you don’t remember your custom login slug, then connect to your site using an FTP client or your hosting control panel’s File Manager.
– Navigate to the plugins folder, deactivate SurfLink plugin by renaming its folder.
– Afterwards Log in via wp-login.php.
– Finally, Don’t forget to rename Surflink folder and activate it again in your dashboard.How does the Login Hider work?
It provides a custom login url with a nice login form. It also logs failed login attempts and automatically bans IP addresses after a set threshold.Does this work on WordPress Multisite Installation?
No. It is not fully compatible with WordPress Multisite. Use with caution on Multisite installations.
