[resolved] Installation / configuration / Admin Log in Issues (6 posts)

    I have wordpress installed on my Godaddy account in a directory http://www.keithscarr.com/anxietyattacks.com and I have the domain http://anxietyandpanicattackhelp.com forwarded to that directory
    If you go to either of the above you will see that wordpress content will display but not in the typical wordress theme. Also if you try to log in as an admin by typing /wp-admin at the end of the url the admin log in page is not the typical admin page and there is no WordPress logo. If I try to log in as an admin it will not accept my username and password even though I am absolutely sure they are correct. I have uninstalled and reinstalled many times and always end up with the same result. It may help if I explain the history of what I did when this first started happening. I originally had wordpress installed in keithscarr.com/wptest and I had the anxietyandpanicattackhelp.com domain forwarded to it. When I did a google search my domain name did not display but keithscarr.com/wptest did which I did not want. So I tried to fix that. I logged in as an admin and clicked on Settings and changed 2 fields: "WordPress address (URL)" and "Blog address (URL)" and I replaced http://keithscarr.com/wptest with http://anxietyandpanicattackhelp.com
    Then I saved my change. I think that was a BIG mistake. After I got out of admin I lost my theme and I tried to go back to admin and the sign on page changed (to what you see now without the wordpress logo) and it did not accept my password. I tried to uninstall wordpress and reinstall, no good. I tried to add my domain (anxietyandpanicattackshelp.com) to my Godaddy hosting account rather than forwad it from cheapcheapdomainnames.com where I bought it which is what I did the first time) and create a new subdirectory keithscarr.com/anxietyattacks then install wordpress from Godaddy into that domain. Still no good - no theme, can't log in as admin even though I know the correct username and password. If I click to e-mail me a new password nothing ever comes. Please help, I have been trying to fix this for a week and I have exhasted all my options.

    Opps ... please note that the first link http://www.keithscarr.com/anxietyattacks.com is not correct and should be http://www.keithscarr.com/anxietyattacks (i.e. no .com at the end)

    Your admin login is here:
    http://anxietyandpanicattackhelp.com/wp-admin

    Viewing the source when going to http://www.keithscarr.com/anxietyattacks shows that your installation is looking for the WordPress stuff here:
    http://anxietyandpanicattackhelp.com/wp-content/themes/default/style.css

    Hope that helps.

    Hi Sherry, thanks for getting back to me.

    I know http://anxietyandpanicattackhelp.com/wp-admin is my admin login, what I was trying to say is that if you click on http://anxietyandpanicattackhelp.com/wp-admin a no standard login page display without the WordPress logo and when I try to log in it does not accept my username and password and I can not get in to admin.

    I have no clue how that style.css file can help me with my problem.

    -Keith

    Actually, this is your "true" login page - one that's not in a frame or anything:

    http://keithscarr.com/anxietyattacks/wp-login.php

    The style sheet itself can't help you - I was just trying to help you establish your true path so that you can track down what's going on.

    I got godaddy, my hosting company to restore it, so this is no longer an issue. Thanks.
