ry:
– resetting the plugins folder by FTP or phpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems (because the hooks remain unless plugins completely removed or some plugins stick around in cached files. So by renaming the folder, you break them and force them inactive).
-switching to the unedited default theme (that came with your version of WP) for a moment by renaming your current theme’s folder in wp-content/themes. The idea is to force WordPress to fall back to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific issue.
If you don’t have access to your admin area, then access your server via FTP or SFTP or whatever file management application your host provides.
Thanks for your help!
I tried both of the above. I changed the folder names in filemanger as suggested but still can’t view the admin login page.
Any other ideas?
Is there a back way to open the admin page through cpanel? This could be a work around?

cannot see my admin login page unless I delete my .htaccess file
looks like something in .htccess may be the problem.
check what you might have added to the .htaccess file triggering this issue.
