Changed password; now can't login (5 posts)

    I was logged onto my website earlier. Later, I changed my password in the global dashboard. Now, I can't log onto my site. I'm new at this. My question is: is my username/password in my global dashboard different than the combo I use to log onto my site? I really need a little help.

    Thanks,
    Bobby

    global dashboard? Isn't that a wordpress.com thing? (like http://yoursite.wordpress.com)

    Just to be straight....are you ata wordpress.com hosted website? Or a wordpress.org self hosted site you installed?
    (like http://yoursite.com)
