WordPress Expert : How to log into Wp admin

The most basic thing you need to know about WordPress is how to log in to the admin backend.

The admin backend is where you’re able to change setting, modify the design of your site, and add posts and pages.

Without knowing how to access the admin backend, you won’t be able to do a thing.

So I put this quick guide together for new WordPress users to learn about the WordPress admin login.

WordPress Login URL

There are two URLs you need to remember when logging in to WordPress (I’d recommend saving these for later use).

The first is the actual login URL.

It is:

http://www.yourdomain.com/wp-login.php

(Please note: if you installed WordPress on a subdirectory, like yourdomain.com/blog, then your login URL will be yourdomain.com/blog/wp-login.php)

Be sure to replace www.yourdomain.com with your actual domain.

So for my site, my login URL is http://www.mywpexpert.com/wp-login.php.

Make sure you include BOTH wp-login AND the .php. If you don’t, you’ll be taken to a page that says “Page Cannot Be Found”.

Once you’ve entered this URL, you’ll be taken to your WordPress login page, where you can enter the username and password you chose when installing WordPress, or which your developer gave to you.
If you forgot your password, don’t worry. Just click the “Lost Your Password?” link and you’ll be able to get a password reset link email to you.

Before you log in, I recommend to check the option to “Remember Me”. This will allow WordPress to remember your login information so you don’t have to reenter your username and password each time you need to log in to your site.

Now, let’s discuss the second URL.

URL to the WordPress Admin Area

If you are already logged in to WordPress, you don’t need to visit the wp-login.php page.

Instead, you can skip this page and go directly to your admin backend.

The URL for the WordPress admin area is:

http://www.yourdomain.com/wp-admin

Notice that in this URL, there is no .php at the end.

And, just like with the login URL, if you installed WordPress on a subdirectory, your admin URL will be www.yourdomain.com/subdirectory/wp-admin.

Using your admin URL to enter your WordPress admin backend is much faster and easier than having to login again each time.

What If I Can’t Log In?

If you are able to access the WordPress login page, make sure you are entering your username and password EXACTLY as they are written: capitalization counts. 9 times out of 10, my clients are entering their password incorrectly.

If you’ve checked and you are definitely entering the username and password correctly, click the “Lost Your Password?” link. You’ll then need to enter the email address you used when installing WordPress. WordPress will then send a password reset link to your email address.

If none of the above options work, or if you just can’t get to the wp-login.php page, you will need some additional help

Hope it helps you all...!!!
