Domain not listed. Unable to retrieve wp-admin login
-
I’ve been trying to login into my wp-admin to solve a critical error, but every time I click on “lost my password” it takes it to the same error.

I recovered the password to my account, but apparently it’s not the same as the wp-admin password. While trying to acess the admin through my account and deactivate Jetpack to see if it would solve the problem, it redirected me to the wp-admin login page again. When I tried to return, my domain was not listed anymore.
I need help to login into my wp-admin and to bring my website back to my account please.

Hi there!
Unfortunately, we cannot assist because your site is not hosted on WordPress.com. It’s a self-hosted WordPress.org site hosted by a different hosting company.
We do not have access to self-hosted sites, so I cannot see the setup of the backend of your account.
To clarify:
- WordPress.com is a managed host platform that offers WordPress in a pre-customized server environment already set up for you to build your site. Hosting with WordPress.com is free, and the server, security, updates, and site optimization are all handled by us. We offer free and paid plans that provide additional features for your site based on your needs (plugins, custom themes, etc). You also have access to professional assistance via Happiness Engineers to address any issues you encounter.
- WordPress.org is a self-hosted platform, meaning you download the WordPress software and install it on a web server from a host of your choosing. You have to pay the host when you’re self-hosting, and the server, security, updates, and site optimization are all handled by you. This gives you more flexibility and control of your plugins, themes, and code but also more responsibility to ensure those things are operating correctly.
Our support page dives more into the differences:

I recommend contacting your site host, as they would be better positioned to assist you since they have access to your account. Also, the open-source forum community is always available and prepared to help users with self-hosted sites: https://wordpress.org/support/forums
