Cannnot login to wp-admin, shows blank screen

  • Unknown's avatar

    WordPress won’t allow me to login, when I try to use “Reset Password” it shows me a blank screen and doesn’t email me. When I go to wp-admin, it also shows a blank screen whereas this is how I usually could access the dashboard. As a result I cannot access ANY part of my wordpress account.
    The website is http://www.sistersister-mag.com and I made it using the GoDaddy package.
    The blog URL shown for me is incorrect as I can’t login to my proper one, the one shown is one I made before I bought the domain and they’re not linked.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi there,
    Are you trying to set up domain mapping from yout wordpress.com blog at http://sistersistermagazine.wordpress.com/ to your new domain URL http://www.sistersister-mag.com/

    There is no domain mapping upgrade for sistersister-mag.com here at WordPress.com. If you would like to use this domain on the blog hosted by WordPress.com you will first need to purchase an upgrade and set up domain mapping.

    WordPress.com does not accept domain transfers but mapping an existing domain is possible.

    Domain mapping of an existing domain URL that you already own and purchased elsewhere is not done free of charge. You will have to renew the domain name purchase where you made it and the domain mapping purchase here every year.

    Please read Important Notes Before Upgrading http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/#important-notes-before-upgrading

    Mapping an existing domain costs $13. annually. In order to map to a domain one must have an underlying .wordpress.com subdomain blog to map from and it does not matter what that underlying .wordpress.com URL is. It does not have to match the domain URL. If you have registered a .wordpress.com blog you log in as Admin under the exact same username account that registered the blog and purchase a domain name by purchasing an annually renewable domain mapping upgrade for the blog.

    If you own a domain then see here for mapping an existing domain that you already own http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/

    Dashboard > Store > My Upgrades is where you do the primary blog set up knowing it can take between 24 – 72 hours for domain name propagation to take place throughout the internet. You can view the DNS changes here > http://www.whatsmydns.net/ What’s important during that stage is to be patient.

    Hi,

    No that is not what I am trying to do? These two accounts are separate. Sistersister-mag was set up via a GoDaddy and WordPress package, therefore it is already registered to wordpress and I own the domain. To my knowledge, this is not linked to sistersistermagazine.wordpress.com as I made the account separately.

    Thanks for the clarity. You are posting to the wrong support forum to get help with http://www.sistersister-mag.com/ Our support docs do not apply to any sites that are not hosted by WordPress.COM and we do not provide support for them

    WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

    If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there.

    WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page
