How To Log In

Follow these steps when trying to access a WordPress site on bates.edu

1. Visit The Quad or type in bates.edu/w

  • Visit our homepage for the ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ community, , and look in the Useful Links section for the WordPress Login link, or
  • Type in the login web address directly, bates.edu/w
  • At the login screen, use your ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ network credentials. e.g. The same username and password you use for your ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ computer and ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ email. If you receive an error message, then try step 2.

2. Ask a colleague

Every office, department, and program at ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ has WordPress users who will be able to grant you access to your site. If WordPress is telling you that you don’t have access to a site, ask a colleague associated with that site to grant you access.

3. Last Resort

If steps 1 and 2 have failed, email webteam@bates.edu detailing who needs access to WordPress, and the specific sites they need access to.
