Title: Suddenly cannot log in Last modified: August 19, 2016 --- # Suddenly cannot log in * Resolved [1stAngel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/1stangel/) * (@1stangel) * [15 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/suddenly-cannot-log-in/) * All of a sudden (was ok yesterday) I cannot log in at all. * I go to my normal log in page, put in my details and it just goes back to the log in page. No errors unless I try it with a fake username or password. * I have even tried changing my password twice but no, just sits there. * Have removed any plugins that I have put on over the past month (although as I say it worked fine yesterday) but no, nothing works I cannot get in to my own site. * Right, thats what is happening now, the ONLY difference to my site is I have opened a community area in a subdomain (the wordpress is on the root). They are on different databases. * It isnt just me, its other members too * [http://1stangel.co.uk](http://1stangel.co.uk) is the wordpress [http://community.1stangel.co.uk](http://community.1stangel.co.uk) is the SMF board * Beth Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 22 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/suddenly-cannot-log-in/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/suddenly-cannot-log-in/page/2/?output_format=md) * Thread Starter [1stAngel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/1stangel/) * (@1stangel) * [15 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/suddenly-cannot-log-in/#post-1740834) * Ok this is a Firefox issue. * Seems the latest firefox has not been storing things properly and is now deleting cookies too. * Used Chrome and logged in fine. * Thanks 🙁 * Moderator [t-p](https://wordpress.org/support/users/t-p/) * (@t-p) * [15 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/suddenly-cannot-log-in/#post-1740837) * > Have removed any plugins that I have put on over the past month (although as > I say it worked fine yesterday) but no, nothing works I cannot get in to my > own site. * to start with, try: * -deactivating all plugins. If the problem goes away, activate them individually to find the cause. * If you don’t have access to to your admin area, try deactivating them [manually](http://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ_Troubleshooting#How_to_deactivate_all_plugins_when_not_able_to_access_the_administrative_menus.3F) via FTP or phpMyAdmin. * -switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific issue. * [govpatel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/govpatel/) * (@govpatel) * [15 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/suddenly-cannot-log-in/#post-1740842) * if you could log in yesterday on firefox and not today and you log in fine with chrome then try deleting cookies and try logging in. * Thread Starter [1stAngel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/1stangel/) * (@1stangel) * [15 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/suddenly-cannot-log-in/#post-1740849) * Thanks govpatel, have tried that but everytime I start my computer anew firefox changes all my settings again back to default. It is a FF issue and I should have tried that first as FF has given me nothing but toruble recently * thanks t-p it was a FF issue not wordpress * [govpatel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/govpatel/) * (@govpatel) * [15 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/suddenly-cannot-log-in/#post-1740870) * I would just uninstall firefox and reinstall I my self use flock is mozilla based as well and I use firefox addons same way. * Thread Starter [1stAngel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/1stangel/) * (@1stangel) * [15 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/suddenly-cannot-log-in/#post-1740877) * I have tried installing and reinstalling and it just does the same.
