info

Note: The WP “log in” link may not be visible in some themes. If you cannot see the WordPress login link on your site, then you will need to type your WordPress admin login URL into your web browser.

By default, your WordPress admin login URL normally looks like this:

  • http://yourdomain.com/wp-login.php (if WordPress is installed in your root directory)
  • http://yourdomain.com/subfolder/wp-login.php (if WordPress is installed in a subfolder of your domain, e.g. “blog”)
  • You can access the login section using this address: http://www.yourdomain.com/wp-admin

Note: If you can’t see the login box when you type in one of the above URLs into your browser, make sure that the location of your WordPress installation is correct.

If you’ve tried all of the above methods and the login area still does not come up on your web browser, then you may have an issue that needs to be looked further into.
