I just installed wordpress but when I follow the link to the admin page I just get a blank screen. I think it might be the same problem. I tried the solution that gothic offered and got another blank screen. How did you find out the address of the domain your domain is redirected to? * [tutierratv](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tutierratv/) * (@tutierratv) * [14 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-login-21/#post-2432066) * I mean how did you work out what was the long wordpress login page? * Thread Starter [rmckibben](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rmckibben/) * (@rmckibben) * [14 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-login-21/#post-2432067) * For some reason when I installed wordpress it installed on the “default” site that my domain host gave me when I signed up. So in my email I saw that instead of wendiadelson.com/wordpress it was going to that long strange site name. So I just redirected wendiadelson.com so that site name and it is an up and running wordpress site when people go to wendiadelson.com * [tutierratv](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tutierratv/) * (@tutierratv) * [14 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-login-21/#post-2432068) * which email did you see that in? Was it in the email sent from wordpress when you created your account? My email from wordpress just shows a link to the admin panel and my login details. * Thread Starter [rmckibben](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rmckibben/) * (@rmckibben) * [14 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-login-21/#post-2432070) * Yes the one from WP. That link should be to your front page. Then you can login to WP by using the login link on the bottom right. Or go to [http://www.yourname.com/wp-admin](http://www.yourname.com/wp-admin). the yourname.com being whatever your domain name is and what folder WP is installed in. Can you tell us what website?
