look in options table or user meta
yes
these are default settings i think = 1
1) wp_user the admin ID = 1
2) wp_usermeta = there are quite a few entries ID =1
so, assuming all 1’s change to new value?
3) regarding wp_options = does not look like what i am looking for resides here…
haven’t made any changes just yet. will wait a bit longer in case new info presents itself.
If this is for security reasons why not just create a new admin then delete the old one. It’s what I did.
You really, really, don’t want to change the ID numbers. Doing so will break many things.
If you want to create a new admin and delete the old one, that’s fine. But don’t mess with the ID numbers. They’re used many places internally.
correct, for security. thanks for the advice, makes a lot of sense.
