login issues

  • If it’s not one thing it’s anothr, right.

    I’ve looked all over wordpress support but I feel like nothing has helped me so far, and I don’t want to go about editing any wordpress files until I know i’m not overlooking something.

    I know I created another user other than “Admin” and I know that I know the password as well. However, I can’t login no matter what I do. When I request my password be sent to me, it doesn’t recognize my email address. I’ve cleared my cache and cookies, restarted my browser, tried different browsers, and tried different computers. The last time I updated my blog was on the 22nd of December (my blog is not currently up at the moment as i’m working on a few things)and i’m sure that I haven’t fiddled with any files other than to edit my layout.

    What do you think I should do?

  • Hiya…. if it were me, I’d bag that user and make a new one. Sometimes the stupidest things crap out, and that seems to be one of them….

    I’ve got one install where I’ve added about a dozen “extras” over time, because it just won’t behave. If I had to make a definitive statement about it, I think it has something to do with them all coming from only a couple of emails….

    Hii ??

    How do you go about making a new user though? I thought that would involve going into wp-admin (or one of those wp files) and changing it around and stuff.

    I think your wordpress support password should be the same as your blog password, that’s what I think! ??

    Yup, that would help! But until that day….

    In order to make a new user you have two options: first – in the login screen click on register, follow the prompts; second – when you’re logged in as admin, go to the admin screens, in Users/Authors, scroll to the bottom of the Users page, create a new user.

    Yes, except i’m stuck at the wp-admin screen. I can’t get into wordpress to do anything at all :o\

    Now wait a minute. Can’t you just login as admin with the original password you were sent?

    If you are locked out – reset your password, here is the guide:

    Can’t login with the original password if it won’t let me ??

    Try changing passwords with reference from moshu or:

    Can’t login with the original password if it won’t let me ??

    Which means you didn’t read the tutorial offered to get back your pw. Why are you expecting further support…?

    I’m working on using that tutorial. I was replying to what Vkaryl said. But thank you.
