Cannot login to admin :(

Post by spoole76 »

Hi Guys,

Glad to have found such a great cart. All was well until I tried to add a new admin name. For some reason I only get page not found now, the shop is www.sarahpoole.co.uk/shop which is fine but if I try the www.sarahpoole.co.uk/shop/admin - it no longer works ?

Any ideas where I have gone wrong ?

Thanks

Steve

Do you mean add an administrator name or change the name of your admin directory?

Also possibly connected with your site's SSL currently showing Not Secure so double check that settings in /admin/includes/configure.php are correct

Thank you, back in now.

It appears that if I select the tab "Protect With htaccess/htpasswd" it then prevents me from getting in.

Best Regards
Steve
