This is absolutely the BEST fix when you get the mod_security problem. It has worked EVERY time on EVERY site that I have. Simple and you don't have to jump through a bunch of hoops.
Oh. My. God!! Thanks SO MUCH for posting this! There is a TON of utterly useless advice on the WP site and elsewhere about 'troubleshooting' login problems but no where do they list the correct URL for admin login. Unbelievable! Thanks again!
Thank you. The php login trick worked a treat. Why Word Press didn't send me a link that worked in the first place I have no idea. So thanks again, great video.
You are the only person that let me know how to fix that problem, even Word Press does not mention this problem at all, so thanks again and I will try to login this time. Roberto Pizano
This video is very simple. It show the exact error and then shows how to fix it. Yes there are hundreds of possible errors that happen just when logging in. This fix will not suit everyone. If you're a beginner and getting frustrated then hire an expert to help. :)
How do I hire someone? I wouldnt know who to start and trust not to destroy my website. And Im in the UK. Any recommendations. I found wpfixit.com and www.wodumedia.com/fix-wordpress-issues/ Any good? Any others
Thank you very much. This saved me a lot of headache. The wordpress folks need to have a warning message letting folks know of the this discrepancy rather than simply not allowing people to login. So dumb.
I had some issues to use Google Chrome with different Login plugin. BUT after the change name all works fine now. Many thanks for your simple but great help.
You get a thumbs up from me girl well done the only one i found without the loud music and tutorials which just type to get the word out. As I am trying to help a friend out to set up their Site I could not log in for the life of me and you can't even contact word effing Press without login in Thanks a million.
hi i have a parse error in a plugin and i couldn't use my wordpress admin panel as well i tried to login through ftp using filezilla.. but i failed..can you help to fix it and save my job
Ahhhh.... it works! You're a genius! Thanks so much. Now, having said that, I still COMPLETELY agree with the sentiment of the last commenter. WP creates more problems for me than it solves. The only reason I still use it is that I have spent so much of my time trying to learn how to use it, I'm pot committed. Maybe next year I'll strip down my site and start all over again on a different platform. Recommendations are welcome.
Yes, It DID work. In my case there was no www at any of the two addresses in settings. I put them in and Voila. First I had to reset my password. Thank you very much.
Hi, I changed my wodrpress URL manually and after then i saved and loged out from admin panel . now i can't login to my wordpress Admin page after changing The URL 's and whenever i want to log in it redirects to other page that i changed in URL . now i can't login to Admin page to correct URL's . what should i do to solve this problem . Thanks so much ,
How would you access it without being able to login, And knowing full well 100% which plugin it is that is causing the problem. And fruther more not have a restore option on the hosting site you used? Just curious, Also i fixed my issue because i figured out i just needed to restore to a spefifc date.
I was wondering if you could help me. I can log into my wordpress account, it allows me to see my posts, but I cannot access my actual blog, I cannot customize it, I can't do anything. Even when I click the support button at the bottom of the page it always says 'Unable to access the network'. I don't understand how to fix this and I am also quite confused by it because I can still access my other wordpress blog perfectly fine. I would be very grateful for any advice, I am not the best when it comes to these type of things. Thank you.
hej can you help me i have put a domain on my page but when i tryed to open it says Site Not Published The site you are looking for has not been published If you are the owner of the site, you can fix this message by publishing your site to this address. i cant even login as admin cause of that problem
After I went trought this problem I thought that it was me, that I forgot the password and I started changing the password so many times that I tried your method and I couldn't login either. What can I do?
I just wanted to say Thank you for posting this video. I've been getting the redirect for the past few days, as well. I disabled all of my plugins manually, via my www directory on my localhost and somehow that resolved it the first time. I did the same thing today and it was not budging. I came across your video, found the work around for the login and even though the url looked the same on both for me, I copied the top, pasted it to the bottom and for now, I am able to login on the admin side. Thank you so much! Even if that is not a total fix, I can at least always us the wp-login! :D
This is so broken, I can't login with any method. I'm signed in to the wordpress site and it shows my email and everything, I try to login to my site as admin and it says the email isn't registered to an account, that's impossible I can see it in my profile on wordpress so it definitely is registered to my account... how is it this broken
hi i like you video but still i cant login to my website ,i did so many attempts ,it says you have done so many attempts and then captcha appears .please help
I guess you could edit this info on your sever but that would be another video altogether. You can google "edit WordPress site settings on server" and choose the first option. They have a good way to do this.
Mitz, your a marvel love, thanks heaps. Worked for me, I looked at other solutions and I was getting ready to pull my hair out, I'm glad I came across your video, Cheers.
Please help!! I can login to my wordpress dashboard but very little is displayed. There is a menu on the side but none of the widgets or anything else is displayed. I have tried this on Internet Explorer and Chrome - both the same. I have cleared the browser cache and cleared cookies and made sure that third party sites can use them. What do I do? Please help!!!!!
Hi Mitz! Would you please tell me? I've got problem with logining to my domain name. It is not working yet when I go to my website the google could not find. I think that I had some problem with billing information in HostGator. Is it true that I have not submit a driver license include credit card number yet? Please explain to me if you feel free and Thank you
Thanks a lot for this video. The problem occurred when I removed the "www" from the start of my domain. Thanks to your vid it was quick and simple to find and fix. Cheers
hello there .The video is awesome. But i having a different problem. Wordpress login option in meta,its not redirecting me to login page .that is the main thing happening .Please help me out
I had the same problem, and the way I got out of it was to add these lines of code to the wp-config.php define('WP_HOME','example.com'); define('WP_SITEURL','example.com'); In other words change the url settings manually from the wp-config file.
Sorry, but I have to ask. Did you replace the "example.com" with your own url? :) If you did, then probably you are facing this problem because of another reason.
Here is an error which i am getting " Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Cannot use object of type WP_Post as array in /home1/user-name/public_html/languageonlineacademy/wp-content/plugins/mojo-marketplace-wp-plugin/inc/user-experience-tracking.php:92 Stack trace: #0 /home1/user-name/public_html/languageonlineacademy/wp-content/plugins/mojo-marketplace-wp-plugin/inc/user-experience-tracking.php(476): mm_clm_log('content_draft', Object(WP_Post)) #1 /home1/user-name/public_html/languageonlineacademy/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(298): mm_ux_log_content_status('draft', 'new', Object(WP_Post)) #2 /home1/user-name/public_html/languageonlineacademy/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(323): WP_Hook->apply_filters(NULL, Array) #3 /home1/user-name/public_html/languageonlineacademy/wp-includes/plugin.php(453): WP_Hook->do_action(Array) #4 /home1/user-name/public_html/languageonlineacademy/wp-includes/post.php(3965): do_action('transition_post...', 'draft', 'new', Object(WP_Post)) #5 /home1/user-name/public_html/languageonlineacademy/wp-includes/post.php(3425): wp_transition_post_status(' in /home1/user-name/public_html/languageonlineacademy/wp-content/plugins/mojo-marketplace-wp-plugin/inc/user-experience-tracking.php on line 92" I am facing this error when try to login
To those still having login problems, it can be caused for many reasons. She is only showing you one possible cause. I just had my ability to login fail yesterday because I found out my hostserver migrated my site to a new server and crashed a database. They finally fixed it, after 24 hours. Sometimes it isn't WP's fault. Some of you might want to check out this page to give you some direction: codex.wordpress.org/Login_Trouble
Ohhh . . . what a tease. I thought that was going to resolve my problem but it didn't. What's going on with this mob? Why can't I login to my NEW WordPress account on GoDaddy? Yes, I have to use the workaround just to login as you demonstrated . . . and this is to avoid being defaulted on the login screen to my OLD WP hobby account. But I have set up a new blog with GoDaddy hosting. WHAT A BLOODY NIGHTMARE. If anyone thinks they might be able to offer some sanity restoring assistance with thtis please get in touch
7 years later and still very helpful. Thank you!

Hi, I also have this exact same problem, but I cant do the php it doesnt work
Thank you. I am Crazy from this problem, i have passed hours for searching this soluction. God bless you
Thank you very much! This was very helpful for this annoying problem.
Hi Mitz, I have this exact problem but I'm unable to login the way you were able to change settings - any suggestions?
You can also see the site url and the home url in your wp-config.php file on your server. This will also show you the database name.
Computerbasics If no info there you can define the url by adding
define('WP_HOME','example.com');
define('WP_SITEURL','example.com');
Yvonnie Ametin.
It didnt work for me, maybe after 10 years is a bit different, any solution!
Hi, Thanks for this tutorial but using the url website.com/wp-login.php doesn't help me in my case. Is there any other way to do that ?
Thanks a lot for this video. The problem occurred when I removed the "www" from the start of my domain. Thanks to your vid it was quick and simple to find and fix. Cheers

I had the same problem, and the way I got out of it was to add these lines of code to the wp-config.php
define('WP_HOME','example.com');
define('WP_SITEURL','example.com');
In other words change the url settings manually from the wp-config file.
Does not work. When i put it in there, there is a error in line. Also there is no URL in the config-file
sondengehen be sure to put it inside the php tags
Thanks but does also not work. :-(
Sorry, but I have to ask. Did you replace the "example.com" with your own url? :) If you did, then probably you are facing this problem because of another reason.
Yes surley i have. :-) No Problem. Not worked, made all new. Now i can work.
