  • I found the problem! When I changed the WordPress URL to add the www. I made a typo. Support at my hosting company were able to fix it and now I’m able to login.

    I have a similar problem. I just loaded a new WP site. I went to settings and added the www. to the urls and changed the location. Hit save and I have to login again. It won’t let me log on!
    I tried fixing it in MyPHP Admin as suggested above, following the instructions here: https://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/phpmyadmin/
    That all seemed to work fine, but I still can’t log in. It doesn’t even give me an error message!
    I have no idea what’s going on. Can someone help me resolve this please?

    Thanks for the reply.
    I checked validation and get 6 errors, I don’t understand what they mean but they all seem to relate to Youtube videos I have in each post. I possibly pasted the text directly from Word so went back and removed it and replaced with text via a text editor. However I still get the errors and still no sidebar. The site is: https://www.dentistburwood.com
    What is the best way to embed Youtube videos into a post or page?
    Thanks

    Hi Guys,
    Thanks for the input. I managed to find a very helpful post here:
    https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/341668?replies=4

    I was initially adding the code to the .htaccess file but that didn’t work. I then deleted the code already in the file and added the code suggested in the above link:

    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} ^wp-content.*
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} ^wp-admin.*
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} ^wp-include.*
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>
    # END WordPress

    Still didn’t work until I realized I had to change file permissions to 666. Once I did that everything worked. I hope I haven’t stuffed something else up in the process!

    Had a ‘peep’ and it did have some text/code inside. I tried adding the code and loading it back up but nothing has changed. I also made the same change to another WP installation with the same issue arising.
    Help needed!
    Thanks

    Not sure what’s changed but I can see a .htaccess file in public_html now. Won’t it be best if I add the code into that file? If so how do I do that? (or should I delete it and follow your previous instructions?)
    Really appreciate your help thanks.
