  Help! I did it to myself! I’m locked out of my own “/wp-admin.” To improve my security, yesterday I checked the box on the new iThemes Security page that disables admin. I selected a range of hours that should have disabled it only overnight. The lockout should have been up by now, but I have not been able to get back in yet today. What do I do now?

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

  P.S. My 404 page shows when I try to log in to my /wp-admin page.

  Hi there,
  This is the WordPress.COM support forum. You need to post to the WordPress.ORG support forum for help with your site because it is not hosted by WordPress.COM.

  WordPress.com and WordPress.org are completely separate and have different logins, features and run different versions of some themes with the same names http://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 and receive advice from WordPress.ORG bloggers.
