[resolved] Firefox login troubles (3 posts)

    Hi everyone,

    I've never used wordpress before so I'm all kinda new to this stuff. Anyway I finished installing it on my host, but now I ran into an issue. When I try to go to the dashboard to login all I get is a blank page, no errors, just nothing.

    So then I started searching for the problem and one of the first suggestions was to clear the cache/cookies/other garbage. I did that, didn't make a difference.

    Then I tried it on Firefox on another computer, again no joy there either. Then I tried IE on that computer and I got a login screen. Then I went back to my normal machine and tried getting to the login screen with Opera, and that also worked. I tried Firefox in "safemode" without add-ons, didn't help. I also read somewhere that renaming the plugins folder could help, now I haven't modified my site yet, but I renamed the folder and again it didn't help.

    So in short, on 2 machines it doesn't work with Firefox, but in IE and Opera it does (or at least I can get to the login screen).

    This leads me to believe there's either an issue with Firefox + wordpress or, more likely, there is some option in Firefox interfering with wordpress's login screen. I'm running Firefox 10 on Windows 7 64-bit (same on both systems).

    the address of the page is here in case anyone wants to try it on their Firefox: http://www.jvportfolio.net.tc/wordpress/wp-admin

    I can view the site itself normally in Firefox though, it's just the login screen that is blank (and possibly the other screens of the dashboard as well).

    Any help would be appreciated because I personally don't know anything else I can still try. Of course I can work from another browser, but Firefox is my main so I'd like to work from that if I can.

    I have to go thru, "This content cannot be displayed in a frame" but then I can see the page fine.

    You can go directly there in FF with http://jvportfolio.x10hosting.com//wordpress/wp-login.php

    Thank you, that works. I never got the "This content cannot be displayed in a frame" message in Firefox though.

    Anyway, thanks and I guess this topic can be closed then :)
