I was checking my webmaster tools and I found two 404 error codes.
Do the 2 picture eventually point to a link, which is obsolete? In WordPress go the the post with the picture. Click on one of the pictures. A icon bar will appear. On that bar click on the "Edit" icon. The Image Details will popup. Here you now can see if the picture is linked to somewhere.
Tried this; they don't point to an obsolete link from what I can tell. I'll wait another day or two and see what happens.

Why do images in my new post get the 404 error code?
I was checking my webmaster tools and I found two 404 error codes.
Wait for some time and then come back to it later. Sometimes these kinds of issues resolved by themselves.
I did some research and I read that as long as the "not found" pages don't play a big role for the website, I can mark them as fixed and if there's still something wrong, it would reappear. Since the links that were showing were links for images that are still on my website (except for one, which I knew I had deleted a while ago), that's what I did. Now I'll just have to wait a few days or so to see if the same thing happens again.

I was able to reset my password and log back into Wordpress; but it confused me as to why I kept getting a password error message after I had cleared my browser history. It wa
To clear the browser history from time to time is a necessity. If you clear the complete history, the cookies are cleaned as well.
Why don't you use a password saving program such as RoboFormP? It would save you a lot of hassle.
I checked out RoboForm, but I'm always wary of using a third party program to save my passwords. Maybe I'll look into it some more in the future.
Windows 10 has a build in Password reminder. Ut's a bit mor difficult to manage. Especially if you want to delete a password. Because it's hidden.
Yeah that is why I hate clearing my browser, it happens with all the sites I visit regularly, the cookies get cleared...
I see you have some suggestions already, in my case I save them again once I type them in after clearing the browser...
Google chrome remembers each and only when I clear the browser again does this arise once more...
It is not a big thing for sites you visit often...I have some that I only visit once every couple of months - then it is a problem hehe...
I have to go back and dig out the right password, and often if I do not have time, I will just have the tool resend me the password or a password reset mail...
Oh the aggravations we have to go through for this business!
Cheers!

I know exactly how that feels! Clearing your browser and then losing the login info for sites that visit only once every couple of months. That happened with some of my social media accounts before. Eventually, I closed those accounts down, since I hardly used them anyway.
If you save your login information then it will still be there after cleaning out your browser.
I believe you can solve the problem, although I can't duplicate it with my own account, by going to your login page and copying the password for the new user login. Then, when you try to log in and are prompted for the password, paste that password. I think you will only have to do this once.
Thanks!
I had tried copying/pasting the original password that was provided when the new user was set up, but it still didn't work. I reset it by clicking on the link that Wordpress provided. I think I would have to enter the password manually every time I log in to my account now.
I had no problems logging in as the admin, it was just the new user account that was affected. I was able to log in after resetting the password though. Thanks!

I'll wait and see how it goes.
Good. Keep us updated.
