    How to change the Magento Admin URL / Path: By default url to the magento admin panel is www.yoursite.com/admin but If you want to change Magento admin login path, then you have to change the front name in local.xml file (app/etc/local.xml).

    <admin>
  <routers>
    <adminhtml>
      <args>
        <frontName><![CDATA[admin]]></frontName>
      </args>
    </adminhtml>
  </routers>
</admin>

    Replace

    <![CDATA[admin]]>

     

    with new admin path like <![CDATA[some_name]]>
    & save the local.xml.

     

    if you try to log in via the default admin url www.yoursite.com/admin, then it will give a 404 error message. This is a way to add extra security to your site.

    New Admin Url path: www.youtsite.com/some_name

    change admin path in magento
