Login Fails – Always returns to login page

  • [ Moderator note: moved to Fixing WordPress. ]

    I cannot login to my WordPress dashboard. Every time I enter my username and password it just keeps going back to the login page without any errors.

    I have recent the password using phpadmin and the emergency script. But I still can’t log in. I also tried disabling my plugin and the them.

    Any suggestions would be very helpful.

    First, have you tried clearing your browser cache/cookies? Sometimes they can cause login issues.

    Second, what type of hosting do you have? Few weeks ago, I saw same login issue with one of our clients on a VPS and it turns out that his disk space was full. After deleting some files, login began working just fine. If you’re on shared hosting, this is most likely not the case.

    Did you try to log in to your wordpress dashboard on another web browser?

    Please delete browser’s cookies and cache and try to log in to your dashboard again.

    You can also deactivate all your plugins to see if this will solve the problem. If this works, re-activate them individually (one-by-one) to find the problematic plugin(s).
