Updating Our Website
-
I’ve been the sadly remiss admin behind a WP site. I’ve not updated our site in roughly 4 years, and now I’m having a hard time not only remembering the usernames and passwords from so long ago, but things have changed in look on the editing side since I was last here. I’ve managed to remember how to log into the WP site, but I’m not able to access any editing ability. I can see all the pages listed, click on the drop down box, see ‘edit’ etc., but when I click on edit I can’t get to anything. Is it because I’ve not updated in so long? Need to do something specific? Can you please help?

Hey @childrenarethehope!
I have taken a look at the site you need help with and it appears you are using a self-hosted WordPress.ORG page. This support forum specializes in WordPress.COM hosted pages.
In order to get you the best help I would suggest going to https://wordpress.org/support/ to find support articles and post to the support thread there. They will be able to offer much more assistance over there.
Cheers,
Tony

Hi Tony! Thank you so very much for your help! I’ve even forgotten the username and password to enter into the .org site… is all hope lost? The username and password that I used to enter, evidently, into the wp site I mentioned earlier won’t even work there anymore either. Oh dear…. I’m at a loss. Help more? :)
Joy to your day,

I’ve even forgotten the username and password to enter into the .org site.
The wordpress.ORG support forum is at http://wordpress.org/support. The wordpress.ORG login link is here https://login.wordpress.org/
If you do not have an account yet then click Create an account https://login.wordpress.org/register/ and if you have lost an account password click Lost password? https://login.wordpress.org/lostpassword/
WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page
See also https://apps.wordpress.org/support/ for app support. -
Hi –
Just chiming in for clarification.
childrenarethehope.org is hosted by DreamHost and also registered through them. It is not on the WordPress.com service.
Because of that, I do not have the necessary access to assist you with this site. You’ll want to contact DreamHost directly or post in the WordPress community forums at wordpress.org/support/ There a community member will assist you.
