[SOLVED] Admin cannot log in after changing front page template.
 

I think your template is brilliant. I am new to WordPress so I have put in a lot of hours getting used to it and to atahualpa. Last week I locked myself out when I changed some permalinks, but was able
to fix it in wp-options.

The static front page was challenging, but I finally have widget and plug-in running on center column. It runs on ALL the pages though, not just the front, which is what I would like. So today I changed the static front page to nosidebar.php (after following JuggleDad's mod instructions). NOW I cannot log into the site as admin.

I've tried everything. Nothing works. The site runs, www.greenvilleconcerts.com/blog - but I cannot log in. This happened imediately after I selected the nosidebar.php for the page template instead of default. Can you tell me how to log in and fix this?:confused:

Thx so much.

Using FTP, go into the atahualpa folder and rename 'index.'php'' to 'index.old' this will cause wordpress to activate the twenty-ten theme and you will be able to get in if it was something you did to mess up the theme.

But if the theme was messed up, would it still run? Like I said, the theme starts fine. I just cant log in as admin. Can you think of any reason why changing the template on the static front page would prevent Admin from logging on? Thanks.

I've never heard of something like this, but it won't hurt anything to swap to the default theme, you can always swap back to atahualpa one you get into the backend.

By swapping themes you will learn if it is a theme issue or something else.

Ok, and thanks for your time.

fyi.. I clicked on forgot password and received and encrypted psw from WordPress, and it worked! You can mark this issue closed, thank goodness! :p Thank You, oh wise ones!!!
