    Hi,
    I installed your plugin (Project Force Field) yesterday and I now can’t access my site. I am using the wp-login.php to log in which understandably isn’t working however I try logging in using wp-admin.php and it says ‘page not found/ 404 Not Found message’
    I have been in contact with my hosting supplier who has suggested that the software may be missing files. Could this be the case and if so how do I go about fixing this?

    My htaccess file looks normal:
    #BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    # END WordPress

    # BEGIN OGFF
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteRule ^safe\-entrance\.php$ wp-login.php [NC,L]
    RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} wp\-login\.php [NC]
    RewriteRule ^wp\-login\.php$ – [F]
    </IfModule>
    # END OGFF

    Many thanks,
    Jos

    Really needed to work on my site asap so I deleted the plugin via ftp and then doctored the wp-login.php file and removed the #BEGIN OGFF section. Then I could access my site just fine.

    Can’t complain about the plug-in as it works absolutely fine on my other sites so I still rate it highly.

    Hi Jos,

    “wp-admin.php” isn’t actually a file default to WordPress. To log into your website, use /wp-admin/ or /admin/ instead.

    Thanks,
    Emma
