Accessing /wp-admin after pointing to Wix
-
Hello!
I’ve just connected my domain to Wix after having used it on WordPress. I can’t access my /wp-admin anymore and I need to as we still have information stored there. The domain is http://www.rdslawpartners.com.
Can I get help for this?
I don’t have a site with WordPress.com yet

Hi there,
So, now that the domain is pointing to Wix, you won’t be able to access the dashboard from rdslawpartners.com/wp-admin any longer. You will need to type out the free subdomain (example.wordpress.com/wp-admin) to gain access to wp-admin.
I do not see the site under the account you are reaching out to us from. What is the site URL?

Thanks for your reply.
I created another account cause I only have the login details for the admin dashboard, not the WordPress account.
I think my problem now is finding out what the free subdomain now is. Is it possible for you to access this information?

As there are no sites connected to this account, we wouldn’t know.
Have you created a WordPress.com site with a different username?

Hello there,
Yes the site has a different username, but I don’t have access to it either. I’ve basically inherited a messy project and I only have the admin login to the wp-admin dashboard, not the WordPress account itself.

Hi there,
I checked the DNS record history for your domain rdslawpartners.com and I found out that it was hosted by Yahoo (https://smallbusiness.yahoo.com/wordpress).
So, you need to contact them and see if they can give you access to the WordPress site you had with them.
Please note that the forum you have posted is for the WordPress.com hosting platform which is different than the WordPress software that your site was using. You can learn more about these differences here:
