• A while back I increased security and changed my /wp-admin to something different. water damaged my laptop now I lost & cant remember what my admin change was. I know my user name & password but
    not the page that lets me in. I have been into phpmyadmin/databases/mysite_mainsite but don’t see in users or usermeta..

    help (please)?

  • Need to FTP into your webhost or use your host’s file manager (cPanel has one) and look in your blog’s directory and see what it might be.

    Mark I have been into phpmyadmin/databases/mysite_mainsite but don’t see in users or usermeta.. (backdoor)

    i will go through the front door and peek inside. stay tuned please

    If you changed the actual file name of /wp-admin to something else, it’s not going to be in the database. You need to look at the actual file names on the server. Unless I misunderstand what you actually did.

    markrh no blog ftp directories

    you are correct. in wordpress control panel(when I was able to edit my pages) there was an additional security option in one of the tabs on the left

    on the ftp entry door

    i see bunch of code in httpdocs & httpsdocs but blog is phantom

    [ No bumping please. ]

    Hii u have forget just your backend url right?

    so follow this step go your theme using ftp and add this code on header.php any position.

    <?php echo admin_url(); ?>

    after open front side and see your admin url which u have forget.

    I dont see a themes directory I do see in httpdocs directory these

    theme-editor.php
    theme-install.php
    themes.php

    which one do I place the given code above and where do i place it?

    at the very top?? anywhere???

    I also see wp-blog-header.php with limited code..

    or am I in the wrong spot entirely

    the themes directory is in /wp-content/themes/

    What’s the link to your actual blog so we can look at it?

    https://www.crossdesigninc.com

    This is all I see when entering in the front door ftp

    anon_ftp/
    bin/
    cgi-bin/
    conf/
    error_docs/
    httpdocs/
    httpsdocs/
    pd/
    private/
    statistics/
    subdomains/
    vault_scripts/
    web_users/

    Ok, that looks like the very top. You blog is loading your theme from: https://www.crossdesigninc.com/wp-content/themes/touchsense/

    So, within one of those directories is a /wp-content/ directory. In that same directory will be where /wp-admin/ was/is.

    I would get in contact with your webhost and ask them what directory html files go into for the web. My webhost has everything under /public_html/.
