I have a Wordpress 4.2.2 site setup on Nginx. I have installed iThemes Security plugin version 5.3.5.
I have changed the login slug to something new. When i try accessing the backend via wp-admin it redirects to not_found - fine.
If I use my new slug it shows the login form, when I submit the form I am redirected to the sites frontend homepage, not the admin.
If i then type /wp-admin whilst logged in, I can see the admin fine. Is this correct, should it not go straight to the dashboard? When I click logout, the page gotos 'not_found' again, but does log me out successfully.
