Title: Login page issues…and beyond! Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # Login page issues…and beyond! * Resolved [GirlsLEAP](https://wordpress.org/support/users/girlsleap/) * (@girlsleap) * [14 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/login-page-issuesand-beyond/) * Hi all, * I’ve done my best to try to figure out my problem by looking at previous threads, but to no avail. * Yesterday, all was working fine. I installed the Ajax calendar plugin. Then, I got a message that there were too many redirect loops (?), and then my entire website went to poop ([http://www.girlsleap.org/](http://www.girlsleap.org/)). I was using the Charity Aid theme, and it looks like it’s disappeared completely. * Since this happened after I installed Ajax, I went in through my file manager and deleted that particular plugin. Nothing changed, so I deleted the entire theme folder, redownloaded/reinstalled it. No dice. I deleted and redownloaded/ reinstalled wordpress and theme folder. After hours of troubleshooting, I finally got wp properly installed and able to access the database. But now I’m back at the same place. * My wp login page won’t even load properly (I don’t know the terminology for it), and I’m really confused and frustrated. Help, please, anyone? * [http://www.girlsleap.org/wordpress/wp-login.php](http://www.girlsleap.org/wordpress/wp-login.php) * THANK YOU for ANY help or ideas you can provide!

I’m still getting the same issue with both my wp login page, and the entire website itself. Any thoughts? This is driving me nuts! * [Tim S](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tim-s/) * (@tim-s) * [14 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/login-page-issuesand-beyond/#post-2536185) * I went to your website and it appears you have resolved the issue.

Please start your own thread and someone will be more than happy to help you. Thanks! * [C H](https://wordpress.org/support/users/chjortland/) * (@chjortland) * [14 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/login-page-issuesand-beyond/#post-2536189) * Sorry, I didn’t know that. Allright, I thought, as in other forums, that you shouldn’t start posts about the same issue, but I’ll do that. * [C H](https://wordpress.org/support/users/chjortland/) * (@chjortland) * [14 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/login-page-issuesand-beyond/#post-2536190) * (and you can delete my comments if you want, to clean up, can’t figure out how to do it) * [Tim S](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tim-s/) * (@tim-s) * [14 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/login-page-issuesand-beyond/#post-2536192) * Jorgen, * It’s fine, I’m just trying to give you some friendly advice. Since many of us community members focus on questions with little or no answers, you’ll just get a better response.

I really appreciate how supportive the wp community has been. * I ended up feeling confident enough (after doing lots of reading about it!) to install phpmyadmin to my /wordpress on my host domain, and was able to repair the site URL through instructions that people posted on the forum. * What was tricky was that after I was able to log in, I had another issue, which I’ve since resolved. In hopes that it may help someone else who has a similar problem in the future, I’ve included the description of the problem and how I was able to resolve it: * “Title: pages OR posts work depending on permalink settings, but not both at once * When the default permalink setting (…/?p=123) is selected, the slider posts and blog posts DO appear on the website home page. If you click on the blog post thumbnail, the link does not work – it redirects you back to the home page. None of the drop down menus (pages) work, and you can’t navigate anywhere on the site( just takes you to girlsleap.org) * If I change the permalink setting to (…/2012/01/sample-post/) – one of the common settings, the slider and blog posts do NOT appear on the website home page. Where the blog post should be, my 404 message appears. However, all of the menu bar options DO work (with the exception of the donate button), and take you to the appropriate page. Although my blog posts won’t appear on the front page, I can access them with the direct URL (ie [http://www.girlsleap.org/2012/01/up-and-up-at-upstairs-on-the-square/](http://www.girlsleap.org/2012/01/up-and-up-at-upstairs-on-the-square/)), which leads me to believe it’s an issue either with my .htaccess page or index. php. * The other thing to note is that when the permalink setting is (…/2012/01/sample- post/) format, if I navigate to one of the menu pages, the page will show up but the URL that is showing onscreen will still read as ‘girlsleap.org.'” * Solution: * From: [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/changed-my-blog-url-now-it-wont-recognize-im-logged-in-or-let-me-preview?replies=13](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/changed-my-blog-url-now-it-wont-recognize-im-logged-in-or-let-me-preview?replies=13) * (Excerpt) 1.
