    PHP Syntax Errors<\/span><\/h4>\n

     <\/p>\n

    PHP syntax errors occur when you copy\/paste a code snippet from any WordPress site or tutorial, and you place the code wrongly. It can stop your website from working properly and restrict your login to WordPress admin.<\/span><\/p>\n

    This may happen if your site has been hacked, or you may be making a real mistake.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Fortunately, there’s a way to\u00a0<\/span>reset your WordPress password from phpMyAdmin<\/span><\/strong><\/a>. This method can only help to access your WordPress admin area.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Lost Admin Privileges<\/span><\/h4>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Limited Logins<\/span><\/h4>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    WordPress lets users enter passwords so many times by default. Hackers may utilize this possibility to exploit this by using scripts that put different combinations til your website breaks.<\/span><\/p>\n

    To prevent this, if you have\u00a0<\/span>limited the number of failed login attempts per user<\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>and you are yourself locked out of your own website while entering the wrong password repeatedly.<\/span><\/p>\n

    ‘Briefly Unavailable for Scheduled Maintenance’ Error<\/span><\/h4>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    Do you notice the ‘Briefly unavailable for scheduled maintenance’ error in your WordPress? This error generally occurs while updating your WordPress core, themes, or plugins. It disappears as soon as the updates are completed.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Another login error occurs when your WordPress login page refreshes and redirects again and again to the login screen.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Problems with Plugins<\/span><\/h4>\n

    There may be a faulty plugin on your site due to which you are locked out of your WordPress site. This may be the situation when you installed a new plugin, or if the error notifies something like ‘wp-content\/plugins\/.’<\/span><\/p>\n

    To access your site again, you need to deactivate your plugins temporarily. To do that, you can use FTP or phpMyAdmin. You can see our tutorial on<\/span>\u00a0deactivating all plugins to access wp-admin.<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    ‘This Has Been Disabled’ Error<\/span><\/h4>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    While logging into your WordPress admin area, you notice a ‘This has been disabled’ error? This message is shown when you have used the wrong admin address.<\/span><\/p>\n

    In WordPress, a common security practice is to<\/span>\u00a0change the default admin login URL<\/a><\/span><\/strong>\u00a0(domain.com\/wp-admin) to a custom URL. This prevents hackers and bots from hammering your login URL to gain access.<\/span><\/p>\n

    If you don’t remember that you have changed the URL and used the old one, you will see this error.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    In that case, you can visit your WordPress hosting control panel and log in to your site from there. Many WordPress hosting companies provide easy shortcuts to access your WordPress admin area directly and skip the WordPress login page altogether.<\/span><\/p>\n

    For example- Login Shortcut in\u00a0<\/span>SiteGround<\/span><\/a>, a WordPress hosting service looks like this.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    After logging in, you can visit your dashboard and find your site’s URL.<\/span><\/p>\n

    You can see this option under\u00a0<\/span>the Settings \u00bb General<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0page.<\/span><\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n
