Good extension, need better doc

Functionality
It does what it says, and it is transparent for the agreed user. Need more specific doc for the rookie I am
Ease of use
Very easy to use, once you know how to adjust the parameters, and write the URL to access the admin site. SAVE values before activation.
Support
Poor.To make it work, Look for GOTO in the plugin list and open. Do not activate as is.
Need to set an URL .../administrator/?gt_key=1
Documentation
Give a URL to redirect to home page or error page - change the variable key : gt_key from the box - change the value : 1 from the box.
I used this to: Protect the backend of the site of a small club. I saw that the admin page is registered on a few search engines. I wish to keep it not directly and immediately accessible.

Very good extetion

A simple plugin to install & use once you understand how to use it, else can leave you blocked from accessing your Administrator pages!
Ease of use
Set a URL key & key value in the plugin configuration then append '?key=value' to your Administrator URL using the values set in the plugin!
Support
Raised a support ticket but managed to figure out usage before getting a response (on a Sunday).
Documentation
Non existent! Would benefit from even the most basic usage information to avoid panic when user is locked out if not using a test site!
I used this to: Protect against scanning attacks by hackers after getting a series of failed login attempts to the Administrator page along with other measures now in use.

Great little plugin.

Works as expected. You create a URL parameter and value which are added to /administrator
A useful extra layer of security.
Ease of use
Dead easy. I'm an idiot though and tripped up over a detail, Mathew helped me out within the hour.
Support
Fast, friendly and free. Developers like this should be supported.
Documentation
Minimal but only because the plugin is so easy to setup and use.
I used this to: Providing an additional layer of security to my Joomla 3.9 community site.
