my web-site is http://www.specialcolour.com, getting lots of post but I cannot go into the wordpress to approve or delete it. Someone help please.
Cross-posted – it’s self-hosted so see the above link.
i tried the mention link but cannot get into the web site.
You need to read that entire page – there are various ways to reset it. They do require access to some part of the site or your hosting account or to the database database. If you don’t have any of those, you will need to talk to your hosting company – unfortunately, there is nothing anyone here can do to help you with that.
Hi WPyogi, thanks for your help. I did went into my hosting account and change the database to user_ID as novicebee and put in the same password as login.
when i went into wordpress.org/wp_login.php and type in the same password/user ID, my old desktop did not appear. Nothing there.
What else should I do ? thanks again.
sorry, should be dashboard not desktop.
If you’re sure that your login info is now correct, I’d suggest that you contact your hosting company – as many have tightened login security due to recent mass attacks on servers hosting WP sites – see:

Thanks WPyogi.
I have finally talk to a real person online. Will contact my hosting company. I have decided to discard my blog and do a new web-site, easier that way.
God bless you.
LOL – you may want to talk to them first before you give up on it. Or maybe consider a WordPress.COM blog/site – there, they take care of a lot of the backend stuff for you.
is wordpress.com blog/site different from wordpress.org blog/site. I am not even sure whether my blog is .com or .org as I created it 3 yrs ago.
Yep, they are quite different – this explains more:

Your site is .ORG – paying for hosting means it’s self-hosted.
