 * Hello I’ve got a big problem here, I cannot login into my account and I have 
   no idea why because I havent done anything special last time I was doing it sucessfully.
   Below is a printscreen of what happends when I try to enter site’s /wp-admin 
   part.

 * I have also unchanged .htaccess file that goes something like this below:
 * # 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
 * Do you know what to do because I cannot change anything in my site…

 * try a few basic troubleshooting steps:
    – Flushing any caching plugins you might
   be running, as well as server and/or browser caches. – deactivating ALL plugins
   temporarily to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate them
   individually (one-by-one) to find the problematic plugin(s). If you can’t get
   into your admin dashboard, try deactivating via [FTP or SFTP ](http://codex.wordpress.org/FTP_Clients)
   or whatever file management application your host provides. Also remember to 
   deactivate any plugins in the mu-plugins folder. The easiest way is to rename
   that folder to mu-plugins-old. – If that does not resolve the issue, try switching
   to the unedited default Twenty Fourteen Theme for a moment using the WP dashboard
   to rule out any theme-specific issue. If you don’t have access to your admin 
   area, you can switch to the default theme by renaming your current theme’s folder
   in wp-content/themes and adding “-old” to the end of the folder name using via
   [FTP or SFTP ](http://codex.wordpress.org/FTP_Clients)or whatever file management
   application your host provides. Alternately, you can remove other themes except
   the default theme. That will force your site to use it. – If that does not resolve
   the issue, try [resetting the plugins folder](http://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_to_deactivate_all_plugins_when_not_able_to_access_the_administrative_menus.3F)
   via [FTP or SFTP ](http://codex.wordpress.org/FTP_Clients)or whatever file management
   application your host provides. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can 
   still cause problems (because the hooks remain unless plugins completely removed
   or some plugins stick around in cached files. So by renaming the folder, you 
   break them and force them inactive).

 * Hey,
 * You might want to disable all the plugins first, as Tara suggested in the previous
   post. You can do that by renaming the wp-content/plugins folder to something 
   else. For example, wp-content/plugins_old.
 * Try to do it via FTP or SSH – whatever is more comfortable for you. Once you 
   have renamed the folder, try to access the wp-admin area again.
 * Once you access the admin panel you can try to enable the plugins one-by-one 
   to see which one exactly is causing the issue:)

 * 1. What exactly have you done?
 * 2. What theme are you using?
 * 3. Who is your hosting provider? Have you discussed this issue with them?

 * – As you are using a commercial theme, you’ll be more likely to find a good answer
   from your theme’s support, for they have the access to its code.
 * – Tell them this is not a WP core issue.
