wordpress - Restricting access to files and directories on Nginx by IP -

i'm trying lock down access wp-admin using ip restrictions on nginx. following seems block wp-admin, doesn't block wp-login.php

this start stop being able login other ip, after signing in redirected wp-admin restricted. however, can still sign in form , in theory still affected brute force attacks.

server {     listen       80;     server_name  website.com www.website.com dev.website.com;      location / {         root           /var/www/html/website.com/;          index  index.php index.html index.htm;          try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;     }      location ~ \.php$ {          root           /var/www/html/website.com/;          fastcgi_pass   127.0.0.1:9000;          fastcgi_index  index.php;          fastcgi_param  script_filename  $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;          include        fastcgi_params;      }      location ~ ^/(wp-admin|wp-login/.php) {          root           /var/www/html/website.com/;          index          index.php index.html index.htm;          allow             123.123.123.123/32;          deny all;      }  }  

if fix context might fix issue. instead of forward slash backslash prior .php

location ~ ^/(wp-admin|wp-login\.php) {             allow 123.123.123.123/32;             deny all; }
