    This is interesting.

    Whenever I go to the WP admin login screen, I enter my username and password, then ON THE FIRST ATTEMPT ONLY, I receive the error:

    ERROR: Incorrect username or password.

    Then, when I attempt again, I can log in!

    How can I fix this? It’s annoying!

    try a few basic troubleshooting steps:
    – Flushing any caching plugins you might be running, as well as server and/or browser caches.
    – deactivating ALL plugins temporarily to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate them individually (one-by-one) to find the problematic plugin(s).
    – If that does not resolve the issue, try switching to the unedited default Twenty Fourteen Theme for a moment using the WP dashboard to rule out any theme-specific issue.
