 * I installed xampp, have localhost set up.
    I can get to my home page from localhost/
   mysite I can also get to my login page from localhost/mysite/wp-admin I enter
   my username and password BUT it goes back to my localhost/xampp page. I have 
   already updated my site url to localhost/mysite. the passwords and usernames 
   are all good in config.php file… I don’t know what I did wrong. I cannot access
   the dashboard so I cannot fix the permalinks. how do I do that from phpmyadmin?
