    Hello,

    I am new to wordpress and am having problems logging into my account.

    I downloaded everything and made it into the dashboard – I left the site and I received my welcome email with username and password.

    Now a cannot login. When I use the username and password from the welcome email, I get the following message – password incorrect.

    Yes. I am using the correct password that was sent to me.

    Then when I request a new password, I get another error message that says – there is no user registered with that email address.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you

    Thank you for the response – I am using the Login Trouble link and am having problems with figuring out the md5 hasher. I click on the link that is provided – type the password – hit submit and get nothing. Any help would be very much appreciated.

    Thank you,

    I had the same problem with the link they gave for the MD5 Hasher too ans as I was troubleshooting my problem. I don’t know why the WordPress site does that or if they have not checked it out to see if it works. Another site for MD5 is below-

    Thank you for the response, esok.

    I am still having problems getting wordpress to work. I opened another website with my web host provider 1&1 because I read somewhere that ftp overwrites may cause problems. On the old site, I installed and uninstalled three times!

    Anyway, the new download went smoothly. However, after the Success! pop-up giving you the random password everything goes downhill from there. When I attempt to login I receive a password error – I then open my database password field and enter theMD5 hash – after this I attempt to login – with success I might add!

    Here is where I am now – inside wordpress – afraid to get out because I might not get back in. I am publishing posts but unable to see them on the web. I click visit site or view post and get nothing.

    I have checked and re-published the config.php file as well.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
