thanks for the plug in

i can access my admin .. no problem but that did not help.

any other help would be appreciated

this issue is mostly fixed (not 100% but close) and i wanted to share so maybe it will help others.

Here is web.com’s responce to my problem:

Thank you for contacting Technical Support regarding not being able to login to the admin control panel of your WordPress account.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. The default page for your the worpress admin control panel is the index.php file. It is not being recognized by the system as the home page that’s why you are getting a 403 error when you try to login. For this matter, you would have to set index.php as the default page for wp-admin folder through the IIS manager.

Ohhh

gotcha. WP was not in the root, it was in a wp sub folder.

i created the .htacces file but it did not help. i have requested tech help from web.com

thank you

i would be happy to add that code, but i dont see the .htaccess file what does where wordpress is installed mean?

thanks again
