A Log in page appears instead of the wordpress page

  • I have recently inherited a WordPress site https://www.techtyreproducts.com.au which was completely designed and uploaded by someone else and then passed on. currently this site is going to a static landing page which is used until the new site is up and running.

    My problem is I now want the site to be live but when I try to view my wordpress site it goes to the login page for wordpress and not the page we want to see.

    I am a novice with wordpress so any help on this would be great.

    – Check the error logs on your server for a more specific error message. If you need help locating them, ask your hosting provider to help you with that.

    When you login to WordPress, navigate to the Settings menu tab.

    Ensure the WordPress Address (URL) is set to https://www.techtyreproducts.com.au/wordpress

    Ensure the Site Address (URL) is set to https://www.techtyreproducts.com.au

    Are those correctly set?

    Also, navvigate to Settings > Permalinks and simply hit Save to regenerate your permalinks.

    Those would rule out any underlying settings interfering with the site.

    The resource requested could not be found on this server!

    404 indicates failure to communicate with the server.
    – it could be configuration issue
    – it could be memory issue
    – it could be permalinks issue, try reviewing this: How to fix 404 error when using Pretty Permalinks?
    – it could be optimization issue
    – it could be a conflict with plugin: try resetting the plugin folder
    – it could be a conflict with theme: try switching to the default theme for a moment via FTP and see if that resolves the issue.
    – check for .htaccess file presence and check if the default wordpress mod-rewrite code is there or not. There are times when .htaccess file is not writeable or gotten deleted
    – Check the server error log for your hosting account. Ask your hosting provider for assistance to locate them.
