I have looked but could not find either a plugin or code that allows only certin users to login in to my wordpress site e.g wan, velma, bob and no other.
Does anyone know how to do this.
Thanks

How to allow only certain users to login

What you can do is to set your specific list of users to admin, and use Theme my Login to redirect admin users to the page you want to see, and to set all other roles to redirect to an invalid page which they can’t have access.
Not sure I understand the question–have you tried just disabling registration (Settings > General > Uncheck “anyone can register”)? Once registration is disabled, you can just delete any accounts that you don’t want logging in.
Does this solve your problem, or is there some additional requirement?
If you’re worried about login security in general, I’d suggest a two-factor authentication helper, like Duo: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/duo-wordpress/ Basically, it requires that you answer a phone call, or type in a code that’s texted to your phone before it lets you log in. Pretty cool! I personally had some trouble getting the Duo plugin to play nice with some custom login stuff I’d written, but if you don’t have any other login security plugins, it works well.
