Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Can't access admin; why doesn't 'Forgot Password?' come upBut how do I get the normal login screen you refer to?
The only log in screen I can find is “codex.wordpress.org/index.php?title=Special:UserLogin&returnto=Administration_Panels” and that has no lost password button.
I have just tried to get some other type of screen up and came up with one from wordpress.com.
But that’s entirely different to .org isnt it?
Anyway, that was “dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fdashboard.wordpress.com%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1”
When I tried to put in my username, it told me no such username exists.
So then, I was invited to put in my email address – it told me there is no such email address registered on their system.
So what do I do?
How do I get the screen you spoke of?
“should replace your core files without changing your content and settings”
Thanks…..sounds logical – even to a layman like me!
But how exactly do I run the upgrade manually using “wp-admin/upgrade.php”?
In my search for solutions, I read somewhere that you paste it into your internet browser.
But this doesn’t work…..I keep getting “…cannot display the webpage“.
So how –- exactly
– do I run the upgrade manually?
You guys are great……but I told you I was a layman!
