 * samuel, you are going to swear at me aloud as you read this, but first let me
   say that i promise not to tweak with my account anymore after i fix this (i will
   leave it to the professionals).
 * i thought i was being clever and changed the domain name in my wordpress admin
   settings to domain.com/test so that no one could see my page as i played around
   with design.
 * now i can’t log in at all anymore. i get this: ERROR 404 – PAGE NOT FOUND
 * i’m afraid you might tell me i’m on my own here. i already know i’m an idiot.

 * ok i got it to work! thank you very much, samuel. here was the problem:
 * before i bought hosting outside of wordpress.com, i had my domain name pointing
   to my wordpress.com blog. what i forgot to when i bought my hosting was to change
   the domain name servers so they pointed at my new hosting account.
 * thanks again, so much, and perhaps this helps some other people too.

 * i know, that’s what i’m doing but it’s sending me in circles.
 * i entered what you told me to: [http://domain.com/wp-admin](http://domain.com/wp-admin)
 * and it brings me to this page: [http://domain.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2F](http://domain.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2F)
 * (i replaced my domain name with “domain” above)
 * perhaps the fact that it says “redirect” is what’s funny about it?
 * thanks for any further help you can provide. appreciate it very much.

 * thank you. however, i tried both of those options. they bring me to the login
   site and i enter “admin” as the username and the pw i was given, and i get this
   error message in a red box:
 * You attempted to login with the username ‘admin’ on WordPress.com. If you were
   trying to access your self hosted WordPress.org blog, try yourdomain.com/wp-admin/.
   If you can’t remember your WordPress.com username, you can reset your password
   by providing your email address. If you have any questions please contact support.
