Blowin Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Somehow I have been locked out of my admin panel for my site. I haven't changed the password and I've had my site well over a year and haven't forgotten the password, but all of a sudden it's different and I can't log in. I think the support guy at ipower may have something to do with it as he was not too happy with me last night. How can I fix this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try contacting your host again and explain the problem because your a user name and password dont change by them selves ( WARNING ) I think I know what Im talking about.

Blowin Posted October 13, 2005 Author Share Posted October 13, 2005 Not unless you have access to the .htaccess files I should be able to get to those through my host's cpanel right? Just not sure where they're located.... If I can find them, is there something in particular I should look for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
