I can't log in to WordPress
Locked out of your WordPress dashboard? Here are the usual causes and fixes.
- Reset your password. Use the "Lost your password?" link on the login page. If the reset email never arrives, your site's outgoing mail may not be configured; use the next method instead.
- Reset via the database. In the DirhamHost panel at my.dirhamaday.ae, open phpMyAdmin, select your site's database, open the
wp_userstable, edit your user, and set a new password using theMD5function in the password field. Save. - Too many attempts? A security plugin (or our LFD) may have temporarily locked your IP after failed logins. Wait, or try from mobile data; if that works, your main IP is blocked.
- Plugin/theme conflict. If the login page errors or is blank, deactivate plugins by renaming the
pluginsfolder via File Manager, then try again. - Wrong site URL. After a migration, a mismatched Site URL can break login redirects; it can be corrected in
wp-config.phpor the database.
If you are still locked out, contact our 24/7 team on WhatsApp +971 58 553 6767 or support@dirhamaday.ae and we can reset the password or credentials for you after verifying your identity.
