Navigate to login page
Open your web browser and add your website domain to the top address bar, adding /wp-admin/ at the end of the address. This will take you to the login page.
Example: Our website is getvalerian.com, so to access the WordPress admin area, we’d enter getvalerian.com/wp-admin/
Enter Credentials
Once you reach the login page, you’ll enter your username and password. Then click Log In. This will take you to a two-factor authentication page.
Note: If you’re setting up your account for the first time, you can click on the Lost your password? link to enter your email address and get a code to set your password for the very first time. If you ever forget your password in the future, you can also use this link to reset it. You’ll go through the same process—get a code that allows you to set a new password—and be able to get back into your account.
Two-Factor Authentication
When you first set up your account, you will have chosen to receive your two-factor authentication code via email or an app like Google Authenticator or 1Password. Depending on which option you chose, go either to your email or to the app to get your code. Enter it and then hit Log In. You’ll be taken to the WordPress admin area.
Note: If you forget your code or have issues with your two-factor authentication, please feel free to reach out to us for support. There is also an option to use a backup code; you can find this option underneath the login box (this may be kind of hidden or difficult to see). If you saved a backup code when you set up your two-factor authentication, you can use that by clicking on the Or, use a backup code option. This can also be used in an emergency case where you need to make an edit to your site very quickly.
