Por que você está bloqueado na administração do WordPress?
Frequentemente ouvimos usuários que estão bloqueados na área de administração do WordPress. Isso é frustrante e pode paralisar sua produtividade. Você não pode escrever posts, responder a comentários ou fazer qualquer trabalho em seu site do WordPress.
Se estiver com problemas para fazer login no site de outra pessoa, entre em contato com o proprietário ou administrador do site para informá-lo. Ele pode explicar por que você não tem acesso ou trabalhar com você para resolver o problema. Eles podem explicar por que você não tem acesso ou trabalhar com você para resolver o problema.

Erro ao estabelecer conexão com o banco de dados
Você está vendo o aviso “Erro ao estabelecer conexão com o banco de dados” em todas as páginas do seu site? Essa mensagem é exibida por vários motivos, como um banco de dados corrompido ou problemas com seu servidor de hospedagem na Web.
Se estiver vendo esse erro ao tentar fazer login, consulte o nosso guia sobre como corrigir o erro ao estabelecer uma conexão com o banco de dados no WordPress.
Erro interno do servidor 500
Outro erro do WordPress que um iniciante pode encontrar é o “Internal Server Error” ou, às vezes, “500 Internal Server Error”. Esse erro é exibido quando há algo errado, mas o servidor não consegue identificar onde está o problema.
Se você vir essa mensagem ao tentar fazer login no WordPress, siga as etapas do nosso guia sobre como corrigir o erro interno do servidor 500 no WordPress.
Erro 404 “Not Found” (Não encontrado)
Às vezes, os usuários cometem um erro ao alterar o endereço do WordPress e o endereço do site nas configurações do WordPress. Na próxima vez que tentam fazer login na área de administração, eles veem o erro “Erro 404 – Não encontrado”.
Se isso estiver acontecendo com você, consulte nosso guia sobre como alterar os URLs do seu site WordPress. Não será possível usar o Método 1 porque você não pode fazer login, mas os outros métodos devem livrá-lo do problema.
Observação: se você conseguir fazer login no site, mas vir o erro 404 ao visualizar uma de suas postagens, o problema é outro. Você pode saber como corrigir o problema em nosso guia sobre como corrigir postagens do WordPress que retornam erro 404.
Erro 403 Forbidden
Alguns usuários relatam ter visto o erro “HTTP Error 403 – Forbidden” ao tentar fazer login no wp-admin. Esse erro pode ser causado por permissões de arquivo incorretas, plug-ins de segurança mal codificados ou pela configuração do servidor.
Se você estiver vendo esse erro, nosso guia sobre como corrigir o erro 403 Forbidden no WordPress o ajudará a rastrear e corrigir o problema.
401 Unauthorized Error (Erro não autorizado)
Outra mensagem que você poderá ver quando estiver bloqueado na administração do WordPress é o erro 401. Esse erro às vezes é acompanhado de uma mensagem que diz: “Acesso negado devido a credenciais inválidas” ou “Autorização necessária”.
Você poderá ver essa mensagem se tiver protegido com senha a pasta de administração do WordPress. Ela também pode ser causada por um plug-in de segurança do WordPress ou por medidas de segurança adotadas por sua empresa de hospedagem.
Consulte nosso guia sobre como corrigir o erro 401 no WordPress para conhecer seis soluções que o ajudarão a recuperar o acesso ao seu site.
Logins limitados
Por padrão, o WordPress permite que os usuários digitem as senhas quantas vezes quiserem. Os hackers podem tentar explorar isso usando scripts que inserem combinações diferentes até que seu site seja quebrado.
Para evitar isso, recomendamos que você limite o número de tentativas de login com falha por usuário. No entanto, isso pode significar que você ficará bloqueado em seu próprio site quando digitar a senha errada muitas vezes.
Se você estiver nessa situação, siga as etapas do nosso guia sobre como desbloquear o Limit Login Attempts no WordPress.
Tela branca da morte
Você está vendo uma tela branca no seu administrador do WordPress? Esse problema costuma ser chamado de tela branca da morte do WordPress.
Isso acontece quando você esgota o limite de memória. Isso pode ser causado por um plug-in ou tema mal codificado ou por uma hospedagem na Web não confiável.
Se estiver vendo esse erro, consulte o nosso guia sobre como corrigir a tela branca da morte do WordPress.
Problema de senha incorreta
Não há nada mais frustrante do que ser informado de que usou a senha errada quando você tem certeza de que não usou e até verificou se o caps lock não está ativado.
Isso pode acontecer se você tiver sido vítima de um hack ou se estiver apenas cometendo um erro honesto.
Pior ainda, quando você tenta alterar sua senha, nunca recebe o e-mail porque ele vai para um endereço ao qual você não tem mais acesso.
Felizmente, há outra maneira de redefinir sua senha do WordPress no phpMyAdmin. Esse método pode ser um pouco complicado para novos usuários, mas é sua melhor esperança de recuperar o acesso à área de administração.
Problemas com plug-ins
Você pode estar bloqueado na administração do WordPress devido a um plug-in ou tema com defeito. Esse pode ser o caso se você não conseguir fazer login no administrador do WordPress depois de instalar um novo plug-in ou se a mensagem de erro mencionar ‘wp-content/plugins/’.
Para recuperar o acesso ao seu site, será necessário desativar temporariamente os plug-ins. Você pode fazer isso usando o FTP ou o phpMyAdmin seguindo nosso guia passo a passo sobre como desativar todos os plugins quando não for possível acessar o wp-admin.
Perda de privilégios de administrador
Às vezes, você pode conseguir fazer login no seu administrador do WordPress, mas não vê nenhuma funcionalidade do administrador. Por exemplo, você não tem acesso aos seus temas ou plug-ins.
Isso pode acontecer se as permissões de usuário foram modificadas. Pode ser que hackers tenham infectado seu site e, em seguida, excluído seus privilégios de administrador.
Nesse caso, você deve adicionar um usuário administrador ao banco de dados do WordPress via MySQL (phpMyAdmin).
Site WordPress hackeado
Se você suspeitar que seu site foi hackeado, há outras medidas que podem ser necessárias.
Um site invadido pode ter uma aparência diferente, exibir conteúdo diferente ou reproduzir automaticamente música ou outra mídia. Pior ainda, ele pode estar infectando seus visitantes com vírus, portanto, você precisa agir rapidamente.
Você pode começar com nosso guia para iniciantes sobre como corrigir seu site WordPress invadido. Mostraremos a você como identificar a invasão, restaurar seu site a partir de um backup e remover qualquer malware.
Depois disso, você deve proteger seu site contra ataques futuros. Mostramos como fazer isso em nosso guia definitivo de segurança do WordPress.
Atualização e redirecionamento da página de login
Outro tipo de erro de login é quando a página de login do WordPress continua sendo atualizada e redirecionada para a tela de login.
Isso pode ocorrer devido a valores incorretos para os campos URL do site e URL inicial na tabela de opções do WordPress. Também pode ser causado por configurações de permalink mal configuradas ou redirecionamentos definidos no arquivo .htaccess.
Para corrigir esse problema, consulte nosso guia sobre como corrigir o problema de atualização e redirecionamento da página de login do WordPress.
Erro “This Has Been Disabled
Ao tentar fazer login na área de administração do WordPress, você vê o erro “This has been disabled”? Essa mensagem é exibida quando você acessa o endereço de administração errado.
Uma prática comum de segurança do WordPress é alterar o URL padrão de login do administrador (domain.com/wp-admin) para algo personalizado. Isso pode ajudar a evitar que hackers e bots fiquem martelando seu URL de login para tentar obter acesso.
Se você esquecer que o URL foi alterado e acessar o antigo, verá essa mensagem de erro. Se você esqueceu o endereço correto, consulte nosso guia para iniciantes sobre como encontrar o URL de login do WordPress.
Erro “Brevemente indisponível para manutenção programada
Você está vendo o erro “Brevemente indisponível para manutenção programada” no WordPress? Esse erro geralmente aparece durante a atualização do núcleo, dos plug-ins ou dos temas do WordPress.
Mas se o seu site WordPress não conseguir concluir a atualização, você ficará preso no modo de manutenção.
Para corrigir o problema, você deve consultar nosso guia sobre como corrigir o erro Briefly Unavailable for Scheduled Maintenance no WordPress. O guia também explicará por que o erro ocorre e como evitá-lo no futuro.
Erros de sintaxe do PHP
Erros de PHP podem ocorrer depois que você cola um trecho de código de um tutorial ou site do WordPress. O código errado pode fazer com que seu site deixe de funcionar corretamente e impedir que você faça login.
Geralmente, os iniciantes usam o editor integrado do WordPress em seu painel de controle. Esse recurso é útil, mas pode levar a um desastre se você não souber o que está fazendo.
É por isso que escrevemos nosso guia para iniciantes sobre como colar trechos da Web no WordPress.
Observação: em muitos casos, é mais seguro usar um plug-in de snippets de código como o WPCode em vez de inserir diretamente o código personalizado. Para obter mais detalhes, consulte nosso guia sobre como adicionar código personalizado com segurança no WordPress.
Se o acesso ao administrador do WordPress estiver bloqueado por causa de um trecho de código, será necessário corrigir o problema manualmente usando um programa de FTP como o FileZilla para acessar seus arquivos. Se você não estiver familiarizado com o FTP, consulte nosso guia para iniciantes sobre FTP.
Depois de se conectar ao seu site WordPress usando o software FTP, siga nosso guia sobre como corrigir erros de sintaxe no WordPress para corrigir ou remover o código que você adicionou.
Seu site está enfrentando um problema técnico
Às vezes, ao tentar acessar a área de administração do WordPress, você pode ver uma tela branca ou uma mensagem dizendo: “O site está com dificuldades técnicas. Verifique a caixa de entrada de seu e-mail de administração do site para obter instruções”.
Você precisará fazer login na sua conta de e-mail de administrador e abrir a caixa de entrada.
Você verá um e-mail automático do WordPress que informará qual tema ou plug-in está causando problemas no seu site. Ele também fornece um link de login para que você possa acessar o administrador do WordPress.
Basta clicar no link e você poderá acessar o administrador do WordPress no modo de recuperação. Em seguida, será necessário desativar o plug-in ou o tema que está causando os problemas em seu site.
No entanto, talvez você não receba esse e-mail com o link de login. Nesse caso, consulte nosso guia sobre como usar o modo de recuperação do WordPress.
Esperamos que este tutorial tenha ajudado você a corrigir o problema de “bloqueio do administrador do WordPress”. Talvez você também queira saber como escolher a melhor hospedagem do WordPress ou conferir nossa lista de plug-ins obrigatórios para expandir seu site.

Hello,
My browser crashed whilst I was attempting to change the URL of my site on wp-admin and now I’m unable to access the log in page or see the site.
When I type in the URL of the site, I get the error message: This site is currently undergoing maintenance, and will be back shortly.
When I type in the /wp-admin URL it shows me to a log in screen and I enter my details only for it to return the error message: This site is currently undergoing maintenance, and will be back shortly.
Is anyone able to help?
Thanks,

I have an inactive wordpress site (about a year) and I cannot log in to the admin panel. I’m trying to either change it and start using it again or closing it out.
My issue was that I couldn’t remember the password and when I tried to reset it it would accept none of my email addresses.
Can someone please help? I’ve been searching for the answer and can’t find anything about not having access through email.

I locked myself out by installing a re-captcha plug-in, enabling it for log-in screen and then logging myself out. Unfortunately my log-in screen is created by another plug in and they don’t seem to be compatible. The log-in screen does not show the recaptcha and then when I try to log in it says incorrect details. Any ideas?

Hello,
So people from my work asked me to update the website but the guy who made it is gone and they can’t reach him. So I made a new website but now we can’t bring down the old one. Is it possible to do so without having the login? Cause they own the business but didn’t do the website…
WPBeginner Support
Hi Eliza,
You will need to connect to your hosting account dashboard. This is where the old website’s files are stored. You may contact the hosting company and ask them for help. There are online tools that you can use to find out where the old website is hosted.

Is it possible to get locked out when I’ve tried to log in for too many times? I was creating a code for a modal type login and had to log in and out several times to check. Would that be one of the possible reason why I’ll be locked out?
WPBeginner Support
Hi Eymiel,
By default, WordPress doesn’t stop users from attempting to login. You can try as many times as you like. However, you can use plugins like Limit Login Attempts to change this.

Hi Stephen,
If you have access to the web hosting account for the website then you can use that to recover WordPress password using phpMyAdmin. If you don’t have access to the hosting account, then you cannot access the website.

I just switched my website over from WordPress.com yesterday. Everything was working fine or so I thought. Today I tried to log into my site via the /wp-admin/ page, but it is telling me that my e-mail, username, and password are all invalid. I tried to reset the password, but it told me there was no account linked to the address or the username.
I KNOW I am using the right information. I have tried to login on my phone, through the app, and on my computer. The only way I can get to the dashboard is by going to BlueHost and clicking on “My Sites.” It doesn’t even give me the option to log into WordPress from there.
I am so frustrated. PLEASE HELP!

Hello – I don’t know if you can help me. I had a personal site & blog with a domain hosted through godaddy. Some time passed and I apparently forgot to renew my domain subscription – and I lost my rights to this domain. (I can currently buy it back for $1500- yikes). In any case, I’m fine with changing my domain, but in the meantime I want to access my admin dashboard to access what I had on my wordpress page (pictures, blogs, content, etc). I can’t use the normal log-in as I no longer have the domain – is there a back door to access this?

Problem is, there is no code on that line at all. I’ve been on this for the last couple hours and can’t seem to crack it. I was playing around with the code before as it was bouncing me around to different lines of code where paste error syntax codes were but started again from the original ‘broken’ code and i’m left here.

Hi there.
I made an error now I can’t log into my WP admin panel.
How my error happened:
When I was logged in to the Dashboard I went to Settings, General, and changed the email address in both the WordPress Address (URL) box & the Site Address (URL) box, then saved, then I causing me to lose access to my admin panel & get this message when I try to log in.:
“Error 404 – Not Found
The document you are looking for may have been removed or re-named. Please contact the web site owner for further assistance.”
When I FTP into my domain I don’t know what to change or how to change it.
Can you help me?
WPBeginner Support
Hi Donna,
You can try this. Connect to your website using FTP and look for wp-config.php file. Download this file to your computer and open it in a text editor like Notepad.
Locate the line that says ‘/* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */’
Just before this line add this code:
define('WP_HOME','http://example.com');
define('WP_SITEURL','http://example.com');
Replace example.com with your website’s address. First try with www. and if that doesn’t work try without www.
Save the file and upload it back to your website’s root folder using FTP.
Hopefully this will resolve your issue.

No matter how I try to access my dashboard, I get a simple white page with the word “error” in the upper left hand corner. I’m seeing the error :locked out due to too many login attempts” but I haven’t logged into my account AT ALL in over a month.
iThemes seems to cause more trouble than offer any security, because the spam comments and constant “new user registrations” keep coming, but my legitimate access of my dashboard is denied.
NOW WHAT?!?! Thanks!

I had someone to build me a site. Well he did and messed me over on it. He set my privileges to certain things and really did a crappy job with my site. I can’t do anything to it or with it. He has administrator privileges and Won’t let me have them. Is there a way to take it over change passwords and have control of my site? I have paid him all I intend to which was an agreed upon amount. I just want a way to have full control of my site.
WPBeginner Support
If you have access to the hosting account and control panel then you can add a new admin user via phpmyadmin. You can also add a new admin user via FTP. After that you can login to your WordPress site and delete his account.
Make sure you update all passwords for hosting, FTP, WordPress, etc.

It is being hosted through Godaddy. I have also called them, but they keep trying to sell me more security. The experts I hired have added different security, but it doesn’t seem to last. My contact form doesn’t work either, when you fill it out it always says failed to send. I don’t know what else to do. Please help. This website is costing me a fortune.

Please see our WordPress troubleshooting guide for step by step instructions. You will need to edit your functions.php file using FTP or File Manager.

I messed up the functions section and now the site is broken and apparently I can’t change the code in my WordPress admin. I also can’t access the site via the FTP program (it can’t connect me to the server) and I don’t know what to do.
WPBeginner Support
You can also access your website using File Manager. It is a web based FTP program that you can access from your web hosting dashboard. Simply login to your hosting account and on the cPanel dashboard look for File Manager.
You can also contact your hosting provider to help you fix this issue, or send you FTP credentials.

I recently installed a plugin to a website I am currently designing for a client and now am locked out of the wp-admin area. I cannot be able to login to the site’s C-panel so that maybe I can delete the plugin. The error that shows up is:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function et_get_option() in /home/firetech/public_html/wp-content/plugins/DiviLogin/main.php on line 19
How do I get out of this.
WPBeginner Support
You will need access to either cPanel or FTP to deactivate the plugin.
