Cannot log in to Wordpress Dashboard anymore

New postby johnny » 01 Apr 2008 16:45

Can anybody help me with this please?
I just installed the htaccess plugin, activated it and set the password - and now I can't access the wordpress dashboard no more. I'm still logged in as admin on my blog, but when trying to access the dashboard, I get a 404 notice.

What have I done wrong and how can I get access again??

hmm. To get access just delete the /wp-admin/.htaccess file.

Hi produke, so if you delete that file .htaccess will that open up your wp dashboard?
