Wordpress website /lost-password/ link not working - wordpress

Whenever someone on my website tries to reset his/her password they get redirected to the following link /lost-password/. But this link does not sem to be working it takes me to the websites homepage. Any idea why this is? Im using wordpress multisites by the way.

Try this if you are using woocomerce plugin.
Try going to WooCommerce > Settings > Advanced and making sure the lost password section has an endpoint

Had the same, or similar problem. Found that it was a caching problem on the server, as shown here: https://www.anterik.com/solved-wordpress-woocommerce-reset-password-form-not-working/
I contacted my hosting provider and they set up a caching ignore rule on all URL's starting with /my-account/, which solved the issue.

Remove unwanted Url variable when WooCommerce is active in Wordpress

I've been facing some issues lately with our new business website. Basically, when the homepage is loaded www.motionitalia.it it looks like to redirect to another page https://www.motionitalia.it/?v=e0c86157e86f. I've asked a friend and he suggested that it might be related to the cache.
I tested the website using Site Health's tool called diagnostic mode and I deactivated all the plugins. It turned out that the ?v=e0c86157e86f appears when I activate Woocommerce.
I would like to remove it from the URL because it slows down the website and it doesn't even look professional. Has anyone of you ever experienced it? If so, could you suggest to me a way to fix it?
This is due to WooCommerce geolocation with page caching support enabled
To disable ?v=e0c86157e86f like from WordPress Urls when WooCommerce plugin is active, Go to WooCommerce Settings > General (tab), then for "Default customer location" select "Geolocate" instead of "Geolocate (with page caching support)", then save.
As you will see, the Urls are now clean without ?v=e0c86157e86f like.

WordPress “wp-admin” redirecting to a user account login

I’m getting a very strange error. When I try to log in to the back-end of WordPress at the address mysite.com/wp-admin, to access the back-end, I am automatically being redirected to mysite.com/login.php... as if I were trying to log into an account as a regular user or a customer.
I’m a novice with WordPress, and I can’t seem to figure this out. Please help.
I have a website which allows some of the users to post available jobs around the block and others apply through it.
Thank You
I'm not using any plugin to implement the front-end at all.
I tried to login using the regular admin credentials and it didn't work.
A way to login the back-end so i can customize the site
It sounds like you have a theme redirect. Try logging into your site using the login page it should function the exact same way. If not try seeing if the theme has any documentation about its redirect. and if you are able to get to the admin section i personally like having ithemes installed which lets me set my own url for the backend. You can also try /wp-login.php as well.

Spam emails strange wordpress site

I'm receiving strange emails can't stop them even using re-captcha in my site where it says they're comming from.
My answer to you is that you should redirect your question to https://wordpress.stackexchange.com
You're not giving us any information for your WordPress configuration to help determine what might be happening. I am guessing, but this looks like your form has been exploited. My suggestion would be to disable your forms to see if that stops the traffic. I also suggest you look at your WordPress configurations and disable comments or any other way someone can contact you, since that could be the other issue.
Good luck.

Wordpress login with true username & password failed

I am managing a wordpress site. Recently, I have trouble with the login system. Even though I give the right username and password, it give me the login page again and again, instead of redirect me to the dashboard.
The solution that I usually do is dropping all the tables in the database and import them again. It temporary fixes the problem. But the problem still have possibility to exist.
Anybody know what the problem exactly is?
WordPress login issue, when you have 100% correct username and password, and it does not give you username/password incorrect error, but it just takes you back to login form... it is mostly due to some security measure by some plugin or theme. Most probably a plugin, could by JetPack's security feature, or any other security plugin like Bulletproof Security Plugin & AIO Security (as was the case in OP's situation.)
To make sure if that is the plugin, or which plugin, I suggest a quick work around, ftp/ssh to your server and rename plugins folder as plugins-old, and create new blank folder plugins for now.. and try to login now... this time if you can login perfectly, then it is some plugin, most probably security related plugin, now you can go back to ftp and restore the plugins folder, and then you will have to activate/disable one by one to see which plugin might be the issue.
I have faced this issue many times in the past and above approach has always helped me get it fixed.

Wordpress OpenID doesn't work with StackOverflow

To login on stackoverflow, being already logged into wordpress, I select wordpress, then inform my wordpress id into the stackoverflow OpenID login system: myOpenID - and it always logged in. But today for the first time a strange message appears:
You do not own that identity.
I already followed these steps, but the problem persists:
You do not own that identity.
I also tried the same steps on OSX and Linux, using Firefox, Google Chrome and Safari... but nothing changed.
Some others also got stuck with the same problem:
https://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/83715/cant-login-with-wordpress-openid-anymore-receive-you-do-not-own-that-identity
So, what is wrong with wordpress openID? And how to get it working again? Or I simply should proceed as recovering a lost account?
All comments and any help is highly welcome.
To clean the problem that was not allowing to get logged through wordpress openID, the solution was to get into the wordpress and then I deleted all site URL there:
Dashboard > Settings > OpenID > URL [x].
Delete
When I tried again to login again, it asked me to give the permission, and it worked.
I also noticed that wordpress openID works a little bit better with StackExchange than with StackOverflow. So, I finally managed to get logged with wordpress openID through my StackExchange profile. From my StackExchange dashboard, in [my logins], I included additional options for login, such as google openID. Currently I only use google openID as it seems more stable and is working nicely.
My problems were different:
I hadn't a blog registered to my WordPress username.
StackOverflow doesn't use https but WordPress requires you to do that.
