  • Not a wordpress whiz but am bluffing my way through a new site for a project. I tried to log in last night and it wouldn't let me login via CYOAswebsite.com/wp-login

    Didn't give an invalid password error or anything but ok. I tried to trigger a password reset via my email. No email ever arrived.

    This morning I tried again and read that by deleting the htaccess file, then manually resetting the password via MariaDB could help. Did that.

    Now when I try to load I get:

    Your server is running PHP version 5.3.28 but WordPress 5.2 requires
    at least 5.6.20.

    But also, inside the only database I have on the server:

    PHP version: 7.2.17
    Version information: 4.8.5 (up to date) (up to date)

    Halp?

  • Your server is running PHP version 5.3.28 but WordPress 5.2 requires at least 5.6.20.

    Well that doesn't sound good. Your DB is probably on a different virtual environment, so is reporting the PHP version there. Assuming you are using commercial hosting.

    Can't you just use a host that provides WP as a service?
