wp-admin login page gone

Hi Barry,
Thanks for all your attention. The problem still exists, with the “Block access to WordPress dashboard”, however as long as you’re able to access the site using the /wp-login.php instead of /wp-admin/ – well, that’s the workaround.
Back in July I wasn’t able to access the /wp-login.php URL, I was able to get someone in there to help me figure that out, so I can now have the Block Access checked and be able to log in. I hope others find a resolution to this as well since I’m not alone!

Thanks for checking in 🙂

So really this is sounding like expected behaviour: wp-admin is the gateway to the dashboard, so to speak, so yes – we block it – and wp-login.php is the correct place to login. That said, I do see your point and we can certainly consider a change here to make things a little more intuitive.

Right now though it sounds like you are all sorted, so I’ll go ahead and close out the thread. We’ll certainly do our best to re-open it and post updates once we’ve made a decision about any future changes with regards to logging in via wp-admin, though.

Thanks again for your support and patience 🙂
