Redirected to log in when trying to post

  • Unknown's avatar

    I’ve tried to make a new post on my blog but when I selected the ‘Post’ button I was redirected to the log-in page–but my password doesn’t work, either, even though I just used it to get to my dashboard.

    WP.com: Unknown
    Jetpack: Yes
    Correct account: Yes

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

    Hi there,

    It appears that you’re using the open source WordPress.ORG software hosted at another hosting company (Bluehost). Please keep in mind, these forums here at WordPress.COM are for WordPress websites hosted and managed at WordPress.COM

    In other words, if you visit Dashboard.WordPress.COM and the site in question is not listed, then the support does not belong here.
    https://dashboard.wordpress.com

    To get help with your issues, you may want to try posting your question at the WordPress.ORG support forum or to your hosting provider:
    https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

    You can learn more about the differences between .COM vs .ORG here:

  • Hi @djjwriter2,

    Does this happen when trying to create a post from WordPress.com or when working in wp-admin?
    If you’re working from your WordPress.com dashboard, and you’re asked to log in to your site to manage content, it might indicate some problems with the Jetpack connection. The credentials to WordPress.com and your site are independent of each other, so bear that in mind when trying to log in.

    You can also try reconnecting Jetpack, as explained here:

    Jetpack

    If this keeps happening, try asking at https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jetpack/ or the community forums @stevenlinx mentioned above.
