Connect to the WordPress app (Infomaniak installation)

This guide offers two methods to access the administration interface of a WordPress site installed via Infomaniak tools, for example, to update the content.

 

Prerequisites

 

Access the WordPress console…

 

1. … from the Manager

To access WordPress from the Manager:

  1. Click here to access the management of your WordPress site on the Infomaniak Manager (need help?).
    • If your site does not appear here, it means it was not installed via Infomaniak tools… refer to the official documentation.
  2. Click directly on the name assigned to the product concerned:
  3. Click the Edit button to open the WordPress login page:
  4. Enter the username and password chosen during the WordPress installation:

 

2. … via the /wp-admin URL

By default, simply add the terms /wp-admin to the end of your domain name's URL in your web browser's address bar to access the WordPress console login page directly (= point 4 above).

 

If your WordPress site address is, for example, https://domain.xyz, the address to access the WordPress administration interface will be https://domain.xyz/wp-admin.

What to do if the ./wp-admin shortcut does not work?

  • If the ./wp-admin shortcut does not work, you may be using a security extension that modifies the URL of certain pages to limit attempts to hack your site (example of plugin)…
  • If you need to access the WordPress console and your domain name is not functional at the moment, you can switch the main domain name to the preview address.
