It prevents people knowing the address of your Admin CP.

well i know that , but is it necessary ?

Better be safe than sorry. While you're at it, remove the Admin CP link from the footer also.

DieselMinded 06-29-2009 07:52 PM
that only shows to admin so why does that matter?

If someone happens to hack your account, do you want them to easily find the Admin CP?

If someone is smart enough to hack my account i think they can find the admin directory :D

Well if there isn't a link to admincp from your forum, and you have renamed it, how will they find it? Unless they have access to your ftp, but then you really are screwed.

i go to my admin cp all the time and so do other mods having the link there is very important to us

It doesn't have to be full of random letters... It can still be something easy to remember (but have no relation to the Admin CP at the same time).
