Well,I am off to locate my Cpanel. And, get Log in Lock off and Admin user name changed. First, I have to get in:)

?? no I meant Google the term FTP. I didn’t know what that meant. My site is: https://www.drsheilaherenow.net Word Press.org.

Thanks for caring! Thank you all for caring.

I am headed to google FTP and will try and do as suggested if I can get to Plug in Directory.

What is an FTP and how would I access it? I can only get to the log in page. I did see something about being protected by a Log in Lock. If I click it, will it take me where you think I should go?

(I am always being told that I am logged out because someone is attempting to log in to my site (it isn’t me- when it was working my password worked fine. Never understood why I was locked out when someone else was trying to get into my site. Ah, well, that’s another issue.)

Thank you all.

Hi: Thanks Ron. You are the first ray of hope. I clicked on your link; what do I do from there?

Sheila

HI Ron: Not using WP.com. Started there several years ago.It’s a snap to use. I went over to .org because of the advertisers and the possiblility of making a few dollars instead of just giving my work away. With 9,000 readers, didn’t make a dime. But that’s another issue.

I didn’t have any intention of leaving until this past week. I have spent hours trying to fix my login issue. It just doesn’t open.

There is no one to pay/cajole/beg to actually do it for me as I can’t get into my own account. Where it went and why I have no idea. I have always found it slow to open but that wasn’t a deal breaker.

All the new themes, plugins etc. have limited appeal because I don’t understand how to use them. The best I can do is update; I am terrified of changing anything lest the account disappear.:)

All I want to do is get to my account. Can’t do it and no one can show me how. Yes, they send links that I don’t understand.

There should be a caveat that WP.org is not for the neophyte.

Thanks.

Hi Yogi: Thank you for your help. Yes, I did. I tried the one I could manage and it is apparently not working. Some terminology is beyond my expertise and I haven’t a clue how to follow the yellow brick road. Sheila

Hi WPyogi. Thank you. I am so in over my head with WP.org. This is for those much more able to handle the ‘back end’ than I.

Is Dreamhost connected with WP, cause I am ready to go find something I can manage.

Sheila

Sorry. I can’t add more articles, etc………

Ugh. When I try and log in to my account, nothing happens. The little word press circle indicating it is trying to connect just goes round and round ad-infinitum. I can add more articles, etc. and the amount of spam readers is adding up.

Can anyone help, in simple terms, how to get this going. My problem is also that I am not sophisticated enough for Word Press.org. It’s really for people much more savy than I.

Any help would be appreciated.

Sheila

Robert Dean- what is ‘back end database’?

Can’t log in; link to re-set password contiues to tell me “You Can’t Re-Use This Pass Word.” for passwords I have never used. This is the worst program!
