I installed the wordfence plugin and after I activated it I couldn’t log in. I can fill in the email and password but when I press log in nothing happenes. It has happened before and I had to contact my hosting site to deactivate the plugin so I could log in. They sad that there was some error from this plugin that was the cause of my problem.

The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

Hi @jhmsportehf

It might be because you have modified default WordPress behaviour as the login URL provided should be:

https://www.jhmsport.is/wp-login.php

Modifying default WordPress behaviour can cause conflicts with other plugins, including Wordfence.

Does your login page work when Wordfence is active and you restore normal default WordPress behaviour so that the login page is the same as the URL above?

To forcefully regain access to your site you can use this guide below:
