Regain Access<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can’t log in to your WordPress site? I’ll get you back in<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Being locked out of your own website is stressful, especially when there’s a business behind it. I recover access to your WordPress admin, give you back control and check there’s nothing suspicious behind the lockout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do you regain access to WordPress if you can’t log in?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You can regain access to WordPress by resetting the password via email, editing the database, creating an admin user via FTP or disabling the plugin that’s blocking the login. It’s best not to make changes blindly so you don’t make things worse. WP Sereno recovers access without losing data.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

If any of these sound familiar, I can get you back in.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

You can’t remember the password or it suddenly stopped working.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

How I fix it<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From locked out to back in, step by step<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
    \n

  1. I assess the situation<\/h3>

    I check why you’re locked out: password, email, permissions, user or a bigger problem.<\/p><\/div><\/li>\n

  2. I recover your access<\/h3>

    I safely reset or recreate your administrator user and get you back in.<\/p><\/div><\/li>\n

  3. I check there’s no catch<\/h3>

    If the lockout came from a hack, I make sure there are no fake users or open doors left.<\/p><\/div><\/li>\n

  4. I reinforce it so it doesn’t happen again<\/h3>

    Strong password, two-factor authentication and a working recovery email, so you never get locked out again.<\/p><\/div><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n

    With access to the hosting or the database, the password can be reset or a new administrator created securely, without needing the old password.<\/p><\/details>\n
