Perhaps one of most frightening things for novice Drupal adminsitrators is finding out they forgot to set the site back to Online before logging out. In panic, they scream, "How can I get my site back Onine?! I can't even log in!!!!"

When the site is set to Off-line, there is no login at www.mysite.com, as there usually is. This is to prevent your sites users from logging in as maintenance is done. So let's quickly show how to log in.

Example of An Online Drupal Site

Just type, ?q=user after your site's root url, e.g. www.mysitesurl.com/?q=user, and this will get you to the hidden login page.
