Hi,
Please check if you have changed wp-admin to another location through your security plugin.
And paste here your htaccess code to examine it.
Thank you for the quick response but how do I do that?
open your ftp or cpanel/plesk or whatever panel and find .htaccess file. open it or send it to your pc and post here the content of it.
Sorry for the delay. This is ALL new to me. Thanks for your patience:)
Here is the code:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
No problem Sir. Your htaccess file is clean.
Please open your ftp again go to wp-content folder. You will find a folder plugins, please go ahead and rename it to plugins-old, and then make a new folder name it: plugins. Try to access http://chicagoescortsclub.com/wp-admin/, if you are still getting not found, this will fix : go to https://wordpress.org/ > download the latest wordpress version on the homepage and extract and wp-admin in your ftp.
It worked but it deactivated ALL of my installed plugins. What do I do now?
Glad to hear that! Now move all folders inside plugins-old to plugins folder, and activate them one by one and each time, open a new tab in your browser and check if you can access the admin panel. If at some point, you can’t see your admin panel, please remember the last plugin you activated so you remove it and find a good alternative for it.
Got it! Thank you so much!! I had ‘Hide Backend Admin Login’ checked. Is there a plugin you can recommend so that I can manage security for the login aspect of my site?
Hi again,
Oh! That’s what I thought you did when I asked you earlier. It is fine to use itheme security which I assume it’s the one you are using now. That plugin is good. Only next time if you decide to tick enable hide backend admin login, try to remember to what you renamed it, check this imagery: http://prntscr.com/8h0vxd > In this example, it’s no longer /wp-admin but /wplogin
Good Day,
Will do! Thanks again for your assistance!
Np! Do not forget to mark your post as resolved.
Good Day,
