# Admin Login Does Nothing

 * When I try to log into my dashboard at:
 * [http://theweatherpage.net/wp-login.php](http://theweatherpage.net/wp-login.php)
 * the page clears the fields and nothing happens. No error message or anything.
   I was able to login in the morning and when I tried again in the afternoon it
   did this. I changed nothing in between.
 * I’ve tried:
 * resetting the password
 * changing my url
 * editing the functions.php file
 * resetting all plugins
 * changing my wp-config file
 * reinstalling wordpress
 * …And now I’m at a loss and can’t find any more ideas on the forums or anywhere
   else on the internet. I’ve been locked out of my site for nearly a week now and
   I have no idea what to do at this point.
 * Help?

 * Trying your link in Firefox with a made up username/password, I received the 
   expected “ERROR: Invalid username. Lost your password?” prompt. So, the page 
   appears to be working.
 * Have you tried a different browser to determine if it’s a browser issue, such
   as cached content?

 * I swear I thought I tried that too. It works though. Figures that its something
   simple lol.
 * Thanks

 * You’re welcome – sometimes it’s the little things. 🙂
 * If you have a moment, it would be great if you could mark the thread as resolved
   for the moderators and other volunteers.

 * Hi, I have my own issues similar to above for which I opened a thread prior to
   this one.. using an alternate browser / deleting cookies does not help.
 * Please assist. Thank you

 * While I appreciate that on the surface two issues can look the same, the underlining
   reasons can be very different. Therefore, please don’t combine your difficulty
   with another user’s support thread – please start your own support thread. This
   will allow volunteer to assist you without involving the original poster.
