I have a WP site running at babyboxuniversity.com that I put a plug in on to display an under construction sign on all pages. Works great. Only the admin can see any content while it is up…however, now that my computer has restarted I am unable to reach the login page of my WP site…any advice? I still have ftp access.

Login via FTP, and rename that plugin to something else.

Hi ktrainyo,

Have you just forgotten the link you need to login to your site? This tutorial might help: https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/wordpress-login-url/

Cheers, Rae

Just updating everyone in case this happens to you:

I had to use tech55541’s solution to remove the wp-under construction plugin. However, I happened to also have my theme’s maintenance plug in in use as well (head slap)

So I went to my email as I had recently changed the password to my admin and using that link it brought me to the login screen.

Glad you were able to sort it out!
