Lost my admin password cannot login on my own site

  • Please send me some feedback on this topic. I forgot to record my password for my admin
    for my website. Now I cannot get in to edit my site. What do I do? I tried to re login on
    getting a new password and got nowhere, because I had the same profile address for
    my email which creates a word press errror! Help! Thanks any feedback to correct this
    or how to access or shortcut this troubleshooting problem is appreciated.

  • I would recommend the solution of evilJ, though. In phpMyAdmin, select your wordpress database and run the following sql-query:

    UPDATE wp_users SET user_pass=md5(‘new_password’) WHERE user_login=’admin’;

    Where new_password is your choice of password.
