Title: Lost Login screen Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # Lost Login screen * [Lisadb2012](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lisadb2012/) * (@lisadb2012) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lost-login-screen/) * I added a new theme to the wordpress site at [http://kobchicago.org](http://kobchicago.org). The theme is Themnific. You can look at the demo here: [http://demo.themnific.com/](http://demo.themnific.com/). The website it comes from is [http://www.simplethemes.org/free/](http://www.simplethemes.org/free/). I think the theme could be broken and I didn’t notice. Anyway, now when I try to go to the site I cannot find my login screen. Is there any other way that I can log in? This is not my site. I am working on this site for a non-profit organization. I only have access to one login at [http://kobchicago.org/wp-login.php](http://kobchicago.org/wp-login.php).

I tried to make them but it doesn’t work. * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lost-login-screen/#post-2637680) * Yes – you do have a wp-content/themes folder. You need to look inside that folder. * Thread Starter [Lisadb2012](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lisadb2012/) * (@lisadb2012) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lost-login-screen/#post-2637725) * I have found the theme, but I am still very confused. * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lost-login-screen/#post-2637726) * Have you added `-old` to the end of that theme’s folder? * Thread Starter [Lisadb2012](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lisadb2012/) * (@lisadb2012) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lost-login-screen/#post-2637729) * yes, but I don’t understand how to use FTP to do it because nothing has happened. * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lost-login-screen/#post-2637730) * Does your wp-content/themes folder contain a folder called `twentyeleven`? * Thread Starter [Lisadb2012](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lisadb2012/) * (@lisadb2012) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lost-login-screen/#post-2637731) * no * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lost-login-screen/#post-2637732) * Re-upload a fresh copy of Twenty Eleven: [http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/twentyeleven](http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/twentyeleven) * Download the theme to your computer. Unpack it and extract the twentyeleven folder. Upload the folder to wp-content/themes using [FTP](http://codex.wordpress.org/FTP_Clients) or whatever file management application your host provides. * And next time, don’t delete the default WordPress theme. Having access to an ** unedited** version of the theme is vital when dealing with a range of site issues. * Thread Starter [Lisadb2012](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lisadb2012/) * (@lisadb2012) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lost-login-screen/#post-2637734) * Thanks however I cannot activate the theme because I have no access to my site right now since I added the theme. So, I don’t understand how I can activate the 2011 theme. * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lost-login-screen/#post-2637735) * It should activate automatically. * Thread Starter [Lisadb2012](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lisadb2012/) * (@lisadb2012) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lost-login-screen/#post-2637736) * Every one of my files goes to temp once it downloads and it did not reset itself…. * [esmi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/esmi/) * (@esmi) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lost-login-screen/#post-2637737) * I’m sorry but I have no idea what you’re talking about… * Thread Starter [Lisadb2012](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lisadb2012/) * (@lisadb2012) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/lost-login-screen/#post-2637739) * Okay sorry. When I downloaded the theme it went into my temporary files , not into wp-conternt, and it did not automatically change.
