  My site, garygsmith.net will not let me login as an admin. I have the userid and password and know they should be correct but it denies me access. Any suggestions?
  Thanks

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

  According to me you are not using correct logins. You can reset from phpmyadmin.

  Hi Gary,

  I guess your site is using a self hosted flavor of WordPress. (WordPress.org). If that’s the case, you should be looking for support at http://wordpress.org/support

  If you are running the site on WordPress.com and you’ve forgotten your password then follow the instructions on this page –
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/passwords/

  Refer this page for difference between WP.com and WP.org –
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  We don’t provide support for WP.org in these WP.com forums but I can give you a hint – If you’re using .org and want to reset password, you can search ‘how to reset wordpress password using phpmyadmin’.
