I’m new with WordPress, trying to map the wp-admin to a subdomain:

instead of:
www.mydomain.net/wp-admin
I would like:
admin.mydomain.net

I have already created a sub-domain (I use GoDaddy) that maps admin.mydomain.net to www.mydomain.net/wp-admin

I’m posting this question after searching the whole wide web, but all I found is moving the entire site to a subdomain, which I am not interested in.

Thanks in advance to all the helpers!

The folder location /wp-admin is hardcoded into wordpress in multiple locations. It is pretty problematic to modify the location. WordPress will always go to /wp-admin. There are ways around this, but their are many steps.

You can forward a subdomain to www.mydomain.net/wp-admin but WordPress will still always go through www.mydomain.net/wp-admin.

Here is a reference if you really are interested in doing it…
