wp-admin login firefox

  • somehow firefox (34) and wordpress 4.1 do not communicate well on the log in – and only firefox, other browsers work fine; I’ve been searching for a solution for a while now, most pointing to the cookie-settings – but even when set to “always accept 3d-party” I still cannot login; what should I change (in Firefox?) to be able to login again, without changing limitations I’ve set for general surfing?

    thanks

  • I’ve not had any problems using FF 34 (on Mac). What limitations do you have?

    this is the return:

    ?Authorization Required
    This server could not verify that you are authorized to access the document requested. Either you supplied the wrong credentials (e.g., bad password), or your browser doesn’t understand how to supply the credentials required.?

    like I said, I’ve tried every cookie-setting I could think of, but keep getting this return – also erased index.sqlite-file from the OfflineCache in the browser, to no avail;

    I haven’t used WordPress for a while, so I’m not sure if the problem occured after an update of FF or of WP; though what I found sofar online the problem is not new, none of the solutions however seemed to work – as said, access works fine in Opera, Chrome and IE – mostly I use an older, portable version of PaleMoon-browser (in which the problem occurred for the first time) – so I’m thinking it’s after the most recent update from WP

    I also use FF 34 and have WP 4.1. I haven’t had a problem logging on to either of my sites. Have you contacted your site host to see if you’ve been blocked by them?

    I hope you find the solution to your problem. Be sure to post here if you have any luck.

    thnks Jim – yes, I was in touch with the host: nothing wrong there (and again: IE works fine); I’m sure there’s something in the interaction between FF and WP – of course, if I should find any solution I’ll share that
