 * Despite working fine yesterday, I and several candidates have been having issues
   logging in today. I can press log in once I’ve entered all my details, but despite
   flashing as iff the page has reloaded and started a redirect, it just seems to
   refresh to the point I need to reenter my details in again. Deperately need this
   fixed, please help!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fhaving-problems-logging-in%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Try [manually resetting your plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/article/faq-troubleshooting/#how-to-deactivate-all-plugins-when-not-able-to-access-the-administrative-menus)(
   no Dashboard access required). If that resolves the issue, reactivate each one
   individually until you find the cause.
 * If that does not resolve the issue, access your server via [SFTP or FTP](https://wordpress.org/support/article/ftp-clients/),
   or a file manager in your hosting account’s control panel, navigate to `/wp-content/
   themes/` and rename the directory of your currently active theme. This will force
   the default theme to activate and hopefully rule-out a theme-specific issue (
   theme functions can interfere like plugins).
 * Also review [https://wordpress.org/support/article/login-trouble/](https://wordpress.org/support/article/login-trouble/)
