Cannot login after installing the wp-login timeout setting

  • Unknown's avatar

    I am not very experienced with WordPress, however I installed the above plugin and now I cannot log in. When I try to log in it just refreshes and asks for my password again. The password is correct it just refreshes the page.

    I think what I did with the plugin once it installed is I set the time as 0 seconds (default was 600 seconds). Please can anyone help!?

    I have deleted all cookies and browser history, deleted the plug in files, tried different logins of other people, different browsers and restarted my computer but no luck.

    Hi there,

    These forums are for WordPress.com sites and it sounds like you are using the WordPress.org software if you installed the WP Login Timeout Settings plugin.

    You can find out more about the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org here:

    WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

    Support for WordPress.org can be found here:

    https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page and at https://wordpress.org/support/

    Hope that helps!

    Thank you so much, I did know there was a difference but to be honest I am just making changes on this website and I am unsure of which one of these it is as I don’t have access to the hosting details etc. All I got was a login. Thanks for your help.
