 * I am very new at all of this stuff but I installed wordpress through Metropolis
   at godaddy. Everything was working great until I logged off. When I went to log
   back on using the username:admin and the password that was emaild to me, i got
   the invalid username message. I have been trying to log back on for the last 
   30min. I’ve made sure that there are no spaces…double and tripple checked to 
   make sure everything is exactly the same as it is in the email. I even tried 
   requesting my password using admin as the user name and my email and got invalid
   username/email combination. I tried the username that I origionally logged on
   with and it sent me a new password that didn’t work.
 * Now I’m kinda just stuck….what can i do.

 * Finally able to log back on. I just requested another password using the username
   that I origionally logged on with…it took three different passwords before i 
   finally got back in. The admin username and password dosesn’t work…oh well hopefully
   this will work from now on.
