I’ve recently reinstalled wordpress, but can’t remember my login password. I have tried several times to get it sent to me but it never arrives in my email inbox. Is there any way to reset my account or otherwise resolve this problem?

Thanks in advance.

If you are using a cPanel server, login to phpmyadmin

1. Select your WordPress DB
2. Browse wp_users table
3. Edit the admin user
4. Enter your desired new password in ‘user_pass’ field
5. change the function to MD5
6. Press Go.

no, its not a plugin,

and so you know, this forum doesnt allow signatures. I would rather not flag ALL of your posts for a mod to look at it.. so chill why dont you.

I dont know, and it doesnt matter they are no follow links. Put your site in your profile.
