me too – I just tried to upgrade the new plugin. Now when I login it takes my admin user name and password, then brings me to my site not logged in as anyone.
Now that I am prevented from getting to my Dashboard by the very same Security software I use, how do I fix it??? Can I get in via FTP and delete something?
I’m having the same problem now. What solution did you all find?
Nothing has helped me yet though randomly I *have* been able to login twice. Other times the login screen screen flickers back to itself with an empty password field.
I had the same issue and resolved myself. Seems like your theme crashed.
Just enable error logs by using this method:
Login to hosting account
>>Go to Filemanger
>>>Go to website root folder.
now you can find file name “wp-config.php” just click on edit. Make these change on the file code .
define(‘WP_DEBUG’, false);
to
define(‘WP_DEBUG’, true);
Make it as true, this will help you out to find errors.
The easiest fix thus far, that I have found, is to FTP to your website and delete the offending plug-in folder.
I will, however, try the fix mentioned above by enabling the error logs. I can now get into my website, but not directly from the login screen as desired. I type in my password, hit enter and it goes to that frozen screen again. To bypass it, I go to the home link again and from there I can access my dashboard.
I will report back!

Have you tried:
– deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s). You can do this via ftp or the file manager your host provides just by renaming the plugin folder.
– switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.
– resetting the plugins folder by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.
Can I have a little more information, what was the last actions on the web server?
- Did you install any third-party applications and they fall out-of-date?
- Did you have any security applications enabled, giving you no blockout errors?
- Did you set a lockout time for your webserver using security applications?
- Did you hardcode any PHP files?
- Does your Browser have cookies & javascript enabled?
- Are you behind a proxy that is compressing redirecting links?
- Did you get a 404 page, .htaccess permissions issue.
- Try https //yourdomainanme .com/login
kmessinger, how do we reset a plugin through PhpMyAdmin?
I started my own thread but no one replied. I was able to login after installing plug-ins so I am not sure that was my problem?
