  I attempted to migrate my wordpress site to a third party which was unsuccessful. The domain and webpage were not connected. However, all of a sudden I have now lost edit controls for my site, all dashboard links route to the frontend. I cannot open any wp-admin page since they are being routed to frontend as well.

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

  Hi @indianfablesandmusings! I’ve taken a look at the backend of your site and see the redirect you’re referring to. I went ahead and checked the active plugins, and the admin-site-enhancements plugin jumped off the page to me.

  I’ve deactivated the plugin, and sure enough, can now access the backend. If you’d like to continue to use that plugin, please double-check the plugin settings and configuration to ensure it is properly configured.

  I hope that helps!

  Thank you so much. Great Resources. I will be sure to give these a read.

  How can I access Direct Support?

  I am only aware of accessing help by clicking the question mark on the top right-hand side in the dashboard area.
