    I’ve had trouble all day trying to login to my site. I use the correct password etc’ at wp.login.php but it redirects me to wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fphoto-restore.me.uk%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1

    I tried registering under another name and when I go back to login it does the same thing. Can anyone advise next move because I’ve spent several hours on this.

    Extra info’.
    Putting wrong password works correctly.
    I’ve done ‘everything’ regarding changing passwords but I think this redirect is the issue.
    Plugins folder renamed.
    Cant remember recent updates, but the plugins are disabled anyway as in above.

    I must have spent maybe 70 hrs working on this problem.
    Tried all of wordpress forums and solutions. I contacted my host as I know they can effect things like this, but it wasn’t them.
    I finally contacted my broadband service provider and pretended that I knew it was them at fault.
    After a lengthy time spent with them they said they would pass it to their tech’ people and I would have to wait a couple of days.
    Although I have had no explanation from them all of a sudden everything is working again. It was defo’ them that had caused this but no admission from them.

    Problem solved….

    If you ever have this problem and have not changed anything, check with your ISP first ??
