Admin log-in does nothing. Tried everything

  • This is weird.
    I attempt to log-in to the dashboard –

    https://www.theranchers.org/wp-admin

    Entering the user and password and clicking enter does nothing. The fields clear and I’m right back where I started.

    I’ve resent the password. Email comes through with existing password, same result.

    Upgraded to latest version of WP. Same result.

    I did the emergency work around through FTP. Same result.

    I edited the php table. Same result.

    I banged my head on the wall for no reason other than it seemed to be the next logical step. Same result.

    Any ideas?

    did you make any changes in the functions.php file before this happened?

    I didn’t make any changes to functions.php, but I’m willing to try if theres something there to fix.

    Yeah, I didn’t include the .php extension in the post, but obviously I tried that too and it was the same result as everything else.

    OK – fixed.

    Apparently the site URL was changed after installation and updated at the server and somehow that didn’t get trickled through to the wp database.
    Revising the URL the options database in phpAdmin fixed the issue.

    Thanks jholmes for posting the fix

    Fixed up my problem too
