[Defender Pro] Defender login masking and comment notification emails

I recently configured Defender Login Masking and the login protection is working fine but automated comment emails are sending out with the default wp-admin/ not the newly created masked login. So if users aren’t logged in it gives them the “This feature is disabled”.

Is there a place to adjust the notifications to work with login masking or is this how it is supposed to work?

    Hey Midland,
    Hope you are having a good day :slight_smile:

    The purpose of Masking the Login is to hide the default wp-admin & to protect the website from security attacks.
    Also, we do not have any settings to adjust the notifications to work with masking URL.

    However, I understand your concern and as a workaround, you can try to Customize the email template and add the new login URL on that.
    This way only the users who receive the email will be known to the masked login URL keeping the website protected.
    I found a plugin that might help you with this
    https://wordpress.org/plugins/notification/

    I took a peek in the plugin and it seems there is a template to notify when the comment is added, check if this can help you.
