Sign in to WordPress via WordPress & Apps
This guide offers two methods to access the administration interface of a WordPress site installed via Infomaniak's WordPress & Apps tools, in order to update content, for example.
Prerequisites
- know your access credentials
Accessing the WordPress dashboard
1. via the Manager
To access WordPress via the Manager:
- log in to the Infomaniak Manager (manager.infomaniak.com) from a web browser like Brave or Firefox
- click on the icon at the top right of the interface (or navigate using the left sidebar menu, for example)
- select WordPress Site (under Web & Domain universe)
- click on the name of the relevant object in the displayed table
- click on the action menu ⋮ to the right of WordPress (in the Applications installed on this site section)
- click on Access the dashboard
- enter the username and password chosen during the WordPress installation
2. via the URL /wp-admin
By default, simply add the terms /wp-admin at the end of your domain name URL in the address bar of your web browser to directly access the WordPress dashboard login page.
If the address of your WordPress site is for example https://domain.xyz, the address to access the WordPress admin interface will typically be https://domain.xyz/wp-admin
What to do if the shortcut ./wp-admin doesn't work?
- if the ./wp-admin shortcut doesn't work, you may be using a security extension that modifies the URL of certain pages to limit hacking attempts on your site (example of a plugin)
- if you need to access the WordPress dashboard and your domain name is not functional at the moment, it is possible to switch the main domain name to the preview address
