    Try deactivating all plugins. If that resolves the issue, reactivate each one individually until you find the cause.

    If that does not resolve the issue, try switching to the Twenty Seventeen theme to rule-out a theme-specific issue (theme functions can interfere like plugins).

    Thank you, James, for your suggestions. I tried everything you suggested, but the problem is still present.
    And despite the deactivation of all plugins and set the Twenty Seventeen theme, I can not login into WP after I close my browser and open it again, without previous deleting the browsing data using the browser tool. In fact, it’s enough to select just erasing “cached images and files” and login into WP it is possible after reopening the browser. Please note that the WP plugin “WP Super Cache” is deactivated and I believe the problem is unrelated to it.
    It is interesting that if I first login into CPanel on the ISP server, and then into WP, the login into WP it is possible after reopening the browser (without previous deletion of the browsing data), with the same procedure (firstly CPanel, then WP).

    Did you turn off the cache in WP Super Cache’s settings *before* deactivating it? If not, that explains the problem. WordPress will continue to use the cache files without WP Super Cache to control/refresh them, effectively making your site permanently static.

    Ever since I have installed WP Super Cache plugin and activated it for the first time, I have not turned the cache on, it is permanently turned off.
    Even in the WP Super Cache settings, I started deleting the cache, even though it is turned off, but the login problem is still present.

    Ah, then you should probably delete that plugin. It’s a caching plugin, not much use if you don’t plan on caching. 😉

    At this point then, I recommend checking with your hosting provider’s support. They should have more details from the logs to determine to origin of the 403. It could be something server-level, like mod_security or fail2ban.

    Of course, I intend to use the cache:) I just left it turned off for the moment, at this stage of developing the website and experimenting with plugins.
    I completely deleted the plugin, but the login problem is still present.
    I agree with your statement that the problem might be at the server level. I’ll check with my hosting provider. Thank you very much for your support.
