How to Fix it?
Fixing this is very easy, but you need to have a Cpanel Access or At-least FTP Access since we need to do someting on wp-content/themes or wp-content/plugins.
- So if you are installing Themes like deprecated themes or any themes that would make your WordPress Login Admin inaccessible or have an error, or worst a white screen death, for example you installed Themes but all you can see from front-end is the white screen or empty pages, then this is the time we need to do in WP-CONTENT/THEMES directory.
- The sames in plugin all you need to do is follow the steps provided below.
THEME ERROR & PLUGIN SOLUTION
We need to have this access since we are going to modify something on our WordPress website directory.
- Go to your Cpanel Website or FTP Root Directory in which you can see all of the files from your website.
- Go to File Manager
- Locate the wp-content/themes then find the WordPress Themes that is currently activated from your website.
- for example your site is using Sahifa Themes then you must see a folder name Sahifa.
- Now all you need to do is to RENAME the SAHIFA folder name to ~Sahifa if you are using other themes just rename it to this by adding "~" delta symbol or underscore symbol "_".
- Renaming this theme will solve your problems since it will let you access the admin login page so that you can replace your current theme which as an error.
- Access www.yoursite.com/wp-admin and we are pretty sure that this is now accessible.
- Now for the PLUGIN error just follow the same procedure but you are going to go in your wp-content/plugins then find the plugin that is having the error and rename, for example you install plugins CONTACT FORM 7 just locate this plugin to the directory and rename it by jsut adding adding "~" delta symbol or underscore symbol "_".
- If you are unsure what plugin having this error then you need to rename all the plugins and try logging in to the backend and access the login page.
- Finally activate the plugins one by one and then test the front-end of your website to see which plugins are having the error.
Note that its better to make sure that installing plugins would not conflict to other plugins, lie for example you want to have a Cache plugin such as WP Cache or Super Fast Cache, since this two has the same function or job to do then you must only choose one Cache plugin.
That is how simple on fixing issues on your Login page or error from your WordPress site, if you have any question or clarifications please leave a comment below and we will do our best to help you.
