title: MAMP - Accessing wp-admin page
body: <p>I am learning WordPress and I have had a terrible time getting back into <code>localhost:8888/wp-admin/</code>. It worked fine when I first built the site, but I was unable to access the wp-admin log in screen after I turned my laptop back on. The login screen comes on occasionally, but goes back to the error page when I try to log in. When I type in <code>localhost:8888/wp-admin/</code>, I go to a screen with this message: </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>This site can’t be reached</p>
    
    <p>localhost refused to connect. Search Google for localhost 8888 admin
    ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>My MAMP settings: </p>
  
  <pre><code>Apache Port - 80
  Nginx Port - 80
  MySQL Port - 3306
  </code></pre>
