Admin login URL

Permalink 6 users found helpful
Hello all,

I recently used my custom theme on my Concrete5 website, but the new theme doesn't include a "login" link for me to login as admin and edit my website.

Now I can't login and change the theme back to the default theme with the login link. Can anyone tell me the default URL for accessing the login prompt?

try a line like this:
www.www.yoursite.com/index.php/login...
or
www.www.yoursite.com/index.php/dashboard...

If you haven't set your site to use pretty url's either one of these should kick you to the login in page.

Cannon definitely gave the right answer with the "yoursite/index.php/login" suggestion. Thanks!

Do you know what's the log in link in PHP format so the theme can be migrated easily?

The PHP login url is the following:
$this->url('/login')

and logout:
$this->url('/login', 'logout')

Very helpful post! I'm developing a theme and seem to have accidentally taken out the login link, so this was a huge time-save that kept me from having to re-install.

Many thanks!

Just started playing around with C5 for the first time. Made some progress on developing a custom theme, but then looged out, and can't for the life of my find the dashboard to log back in. Neither of these options work.

The site is currently in a subdirectory on the clients server & displays fine. Any other ideas how I can get back to the dashboard?

Where "dir" is the name of directory where you istalled concrete 5
