Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Reinstall without harming database1. How do I create or find out what the admin account is?
2. How do I know which version it is? I am trying to dig through some of the files to see if it is listed in there.

In reply to: Reinstall without harming database1. When I reinstalled blog.impel.us I setup jasonh as the admin. I even tried logging in as admin with all the passwords I ever use and no luck.
2. Yes, it was a while back when I installed it. Should I upgrade or try to find that version and reinstall that?

Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Reinstall without harming databaseI actually deleted 2 blogs. 1 on purpose and the other on accident. I figure I would try to restore the one that isn’t important first to ensure the important one gets done correctly.
I reinstalled WordPress, but when I login with the Admin that I setup, I don’t get any options in the dashboard. I wiped out the files completely before reinstalling.

In reply to: Don’t display site unless logged inI did. I looked for plugins for a long time, but never found it. I just browsed through some of the other posts on here and found the Registered-Only plugin and it solved it.

In reply to: Customise LoginAll I have done is changed the graphic in the /wp-login.php file. That and the /wp-admin/wp-admin.css are all that control it.

In reply to: Forward Users Directly to Site After LoginI just did this myself because I was annoyed with having to explain to people how to view the site and it was taking too many steps. There might be a plugin or some easier way to do this, but I simply edited the wp-login.php (the login screen).
The wp-login.php is located in the base directory of your WordPress installation.
Look for the $redirect_to tags. There are several in there for different reasons, but the part of code I changed was.
$user_login = '';
$user_pass = '';
$using_cookie = false;
if ( !isset( $_REQUEST['redirect_to'] ) )
$redirect_to = ‘/wp-admin’;
else
$redirect_to = $_REQUEST['redirect_to'];
$redirect_to = preg_replace('|[^a-z0-9-~+_.?#=&;,/:]|i', '', $redirect_to);change the /wp-admin to just /

In reply to: Password Protect / Hide Pages / LevelsNothing is viewable on the site because I used the “Category-Levels” plugin to make all catagories locked/hidden unless you were logged in. I also turned registration off so only the administrator can add new users.
The part about pages, is that, even if you are not logged in, you can view the pages. This is the same for the links section.
