WordPress makes it real easy for beginners to set up a website in a jiffy. But how do you log in after setting it up? In this article, we\u2019ll show you exactly that – how to find the WordPress login URL of your website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quick answer:<\/strong> Try yourdomain.com\/wp-admin<\/code> or yourdomain.com\/wp-login.php<\/code> first. If WordPress is installed in a subdirectory, use yourdomain.com\/subdirectory\/wp-admin<\/code>. If it\u2019s installed on a subdomain, use subdomain.yourdomain.com\/wp-admin<\/code>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\t\t

WordPress Login URL: wp-admin and wp-login.php<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The tactic above works in 95% of situations, but there are a few scenarios where it won’t work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Specifically, it won’t work if you installed WordPress in a sub-directory or on a subdomain<\/a>. In that case, you’ll need to add the sub-directory name at the end of the site URL<\/a> or add the subdomain name at the start of the URL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, if you installed WordPress at blog.mywebsite.com<\/code>, you can log in by visiting blog.mywebsite.com\/wp-admin<\/code>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or, if you installed WordPress at www.mywebsite.com\/blog<\/code>, you can log in by visiting www.mywebsite.com\/blog\/wp-admin<\/code>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
