If you forget your wordpress password then what can you do?
Answer is here…………….Two easy methods
First Method
start mysql and login
SELECT ‘wordpress’ //this should be your database name
UPDATE `wp_users` SET `user_pass` = MD5( ‘password’ ) WHERE `ID` =1 LIMIT 1 ;
where password is your new password. Your password is reset, for the admin acount.
Second Method
Using Phpmyadmin……
By using phpmyadmin find out the wp-user table and admin user .
You will notice the password is strange, and not plain text. This is because for security reasons, WordPress stores the passwords as an MD5 hash.
We can’t just enter a normal text password, and should replace the MD5 hash of the password we don’t know with the MD5 hash of a password we do know.
To create an MD5 hash, I usually just search for “online MD5 hash” on Google, and come up with some great online tools for creating the result I need.
Example: Javacript MD5
n such tools, I enter what I want the password to be, click a button to process it, and it spits out the MD5 hash that I want to enter in the user_pass field.
Click Go to save the change, and then log in to WordPress using your new password.
