Ok, so just recently I went playing about with my website, upgrading back-end stuff etc. and in turn plugins and wordpress itself.

All worked fine, I did a few wordpress configs. 15-min later logged out and went to sleep.
Trying to access wordpress the next day I couldn’t get into /wp-admin/ I would always be greeted with the dreaded “Page cannot be found” message.
EVERY thing else worked fine, posts, static-pages, accessing /wp-includes/ etc.

So I went googling, tried everything I could.

• Restored from backup
• Deleted plugins
• Removed .htaccess
• Fresh install and then imported database.

All with the same result, cannot access /wp-admin/ and sometimes other errors.

Now, I do suggest you try those and if they STILL don’t work for you.

Try access your plugins.php directly, assuming the wp-login.php still works for you.

• By this I mean http://<yoursite>/wp-admin/plugins.php

For me it was instant gratification as it worked again… I’ve logged out, cleared cache and even access from another machine and still works happily.

I can’t promise it’ll work, but you never know
