# Can’ login

 * Hello,
 * I’m setting up my site at [http://www.pate-argent.com](http://www.pate-argent.com)
   and the problem is that for some reason none of my login links are getting me
   into the website. Both in the meta widget and in the top heading. They were working
   fine before, but when I logged out this last time well, that’s it. At first I
   was getting a message that my browser was not accepting cookies (which it is)
   and then I just started getting 404 error messages. After I kept trying to login
   in again and again, the login page just kept getting fed back to me. I also tried
   [http://www.pate-argent/wp-login.php](http://www.pate-argent/wp-login.php) and
   that doesn’t work either.
 * I also noticed that when I tried to register as a new user, the page said I would
   receive an email, which I never did.
 * So, anyone have any ideas how I can log into my site when my login liks are no
   loger working? Using emergency.php didn’t help either so, it looks like I’m up
   a creek without a paddle. Help anyone? Thanks…
 * Kenem

 * log in to your host’s phpmyadmin and browse the `wp_users` table
    make sure there
   are no added admins – a sure sign of a hack if not, do the password reset while
   you’re there instructions [http://codex.wordpress.org/Resetting_Your_Password#Through_phpMyAdmin](http://codex.wordpress.org/Resetting_Your_Password#Through_phpMyAdmin)

 * Thanks for the info samboll. I did exactly as you instructed and reset my password
   in phpMyAdmin, no problem.
    But, when I went back to my site to login I get the
   error
 * > ERROR: Cookies are blocked or not supported by your browser. You must enable
   > cookies to use WordPress.
 * Cookies are set to be acceptedso, tht’s not the problem. I have a feeling that
   my login buttons are not configured correctl and that’s why I some times get 
   this “cookie” error, and then sometimes the login page just loops back around
   without letting me in. What does one do in this case? Do you think that using
   my backup restore in phpMyAdmin might fix this so I can at least get in and rest
   the variables for login? Thanks sam.

 * Hello again Sam,
 * I found this link here:
 * > [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/204093?replies=14](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/204093?replies=14)
 * and after reading it I did as they said about changing plugins to plugins.old
   and trying to login. Well, it work. Now all I have to do is rest the plugins 
   and find the nasty old plugin that is giving me problems. Thanks!
