I hate having a crowded top level dashboard and this is a set and forget plugin 
that belongs under setting. Adding insult to injury the name is long enough that
it bumps to 2 lines. But it works as advertised.

After installation, the new login page was showing but the admin login was not displaying…
hence, not possible to login into my site. Had to connect to the server to delete
this plugin.

I installed the plugin, created the new login URL and it does not work. I am locked
out of my own dashboard. Worse, it seems the author is not helping in any way, shape
or form…
