When logging into the /wp-admin console in my wordpress site, it now asks for additional credentials.
I have been at it all day granting extended permissions, reviewing php, and everything looks normal. In one of the forums I came across it mentioned asking the hosting provider as this is a common layer of additional security. I can’t think of any other reason for it. Can anyone educate me about this phenomenon?
Thanks, -Chris

Hi,
Did you use the one click instance of WordPress for the droplet? This is a common issue if you don’t complete all the steps of the guide.
Hi turgenevsaya,
Actually, I migrated it from another server in which is was fully functional.
Would you suggest I go back through the one-click guide and see if that works out? I’m also hoping someone will tell me how this happens. Is it a permission that needs to be granted? or something in a config file I need to look at?
Thanks, -Chris
