 * Just upgraded to WP 4.0 and am now having real problems with logins. Also installed
   a new theme (Academica) problems started with the Theme preview. When I tried,
   I had to log in again and the login seemed to be accepted but then returned to
   the login page. After activating the theme (possibly a mistake?) I can’t login
   at all. Forced a password reset via email and got back in, and am having the 
   same problem. Have resorted to clearning all cookies and even flipping between
   Firefox, Chrome and Explorer – currently logged in with explorer but it seems
   something is wrong. Has anyone any suggestions or seen similar problems? Advice
   much appreciated.
