At one time or another, I've been faced with the problem that the DNN login page is broken. This can happen if the skin causes an error or a module on the same page throws an error or worse yet, you've assigned your login page to a page that does not have the login module on it yet and you logged out.

I have seen this a number of times and have assembled this short list of things to try. Hope it helps someone else out there!

1. Here is the first one. It's from John Mitchell. He has created a file that adds a login page to your site. Check out his post here: http://blogs.snapsis.com/...43-d1b9c8a11906.aspx

2. And here is the second, from Will Strohl
HOW TO : Access the DNN Login Page from Any Page - http://www.willstrohl.com...e-from-Any-Page.aspx

3. Another way I have devised is to have a second portal on the install that has a valid working login page. I can login there and go to the host, portals and edit or view the non-working portal from there - already logged in as host. That one takes some pre-planning unfortunately.

4. Lee Sykes from dnnCreative gives us the simplest technique of all. He shares that you simply add ?ctl=login to the end of the url while on one of the website pages and press ENTER to see the login dialog on that page. Here is the source URL for this technique. https://www.dnncreative.com/Forum/tabid/88/aft/8/Default.aspx Thanks Lee!
