# Login trouble/Localhost

 * Hi all!
 * I’m new to UM as well as WP, tried looking up the answer before writing here 
   but no luck.
 * So, my problem is that when I’m logged in as admin on my WP page and add the 
   shortcode for the login form and reload I see my WP-admin profile. The login 
   for to UM never shows, so I have to log out as admin to see it. But when I do
   that and reload to log in as admin again I’m not able to reach the admin area
   as UM “takes control” over this. The UM log in now shows, but since I don’t have
   created an account I’m not able to log in. I have to rename the UMfolder in plugin
   folder and reload again, now that the plug in isn’t found I can once again login
   in to view my admin area.
 * Surely there must be some way around this? I looked over the settings but I can’t
   find anything that suggests a fix to this, please help!
 * Also, just after I installed the plug this appears –> “One or more of your Ultimate
   Member pages are not correctly setup. Please visit Ultimate Member > Settings
   to re-assign your missing pages.”
 * What’s this about?
 * I appreciate any help I get can! The page only exits locally and the time, but
   I can provide print screens if it helps.
 * Thanks!

 * Hi [@evenstevenswe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/evenstevenswe/),
 * Please go to the Ultimate member -> Settings -> Setup and make sure you’ve correctly
   assigned your pages e.g. login page. Go to your Login page and check whether 
   you have a login form shortcode there you can find this shortcode in Ultimate
   member -> Forms and your login form.

 * Thanks for you reply! However, this doesn’t solve my issue.
 * I’ll try to explain again, the page I’m building is only stored locally at the
   moment. I have made a startpage outside of WordPress and that’s where I want 
   to have my login form. I’ve added the shortcode and so far so good.
 * But, when the plugin is active I cannot login to the admin panel. I get redirected
   and the login that shows is for the UM members, it somehow replaces the wordpress
   admin login. To get around this I have no choice but to rename the folder so 
   the plugin won’t start. When I’m logged in, I rename the folder again and reload
   so that I can work with the plugin.
 * Now, I’m fairly new to WordPress and of course It’s something that I do wrong,
   but what? I really can’t figure this out.
 * Surely there must be a way to have the plugin active and still be able to login
   to the admin area right?

 * Hi [@evenstevenswe](https://wordpress.org/support/users/evenstevenswe/),
 * Ultimate member hides wp-admin for not logged in users for security reasons, 
   in order to login to the WP dashboard you have to login with admin credentials(
   using login page) and then go to the /wp-admin page. You can disable this feature
   in Ultimate member -> Settings -> Access and turn ON – Allow Backend Login Screen
   for Guests.
