I have been locked out of my website for much of the last six or seven days. I’ve had this website for four, maybe five years now and I have never had problems with it… Until recently.
They changed the log in page. At least that’s what I see that’s changed. The first time I was locked out was between Thanksgiving and Christmas some time. I hit my bookmarked log in page and it would blip in and out several times then go back to the original log in page. But then it started connecting to a new log in page. One that wouldn’t take my saved username and passwords. Oh, it had the correct username, the password would work every now and then, then it just stopped. I had to change the password, and it wouldn’t recognize my username and I had to jump through some hoops to get back in and get everything set up again. I had to change my password three times to get one that still worked. And then it was fine.
Until last Thursday.
I go directly to the new log in page now. I have the saved username and password. I’m told I don’t have an account. There is no account under this username. Or I try to log in once, and am told I’ve used all of my allowed attempts to try back in an hour. An hour passes, and nothing happens. I give up, wait a day, and I get in on the first try. But when I try to go to my website I am told there are no active websites in my account. And back and forth.
But today I got in.
I don’t know what is wrong with the new version of this host site but it’s become the main reason I’m not renewing this domain in May.
I’d love to say I’m still actively looking for a new website host. I’m not. I was. I think I’ll just reactivate my old blogspot site as a central place to find my books but that’s about it. I’m worn out from it all.
Anyway, I got in. Now I can’t remember what I was going to do when I was trying last week.
But, just to let you know, that’s where I’ve been.
I might be Gen-X but I’m too old to care to keep up with technology now.
Bah.
Hope you’re having a wonderful day in this never ending month of January.
Peace,
Mercy
