the password you saw was an md5 hash of a plain text password.. you will never be able to login if you do that.
and to get the lingo right you didnt “go into php” you went into phmyadmin” — its important for all of us, including you, to understand what you are saying, so thats just a friendly headsup.
Now that you know where to go to make those changes, do this, go here:
http://www.miraclesalad.com/webtools/md5.php
type in a string that you will be using for your passwd.
Take the next string that is spit out at you, underneath the “MD5 Hash:” and plug that into that field that you entered earlier. THATS an md5 hash of your real password.
Use the string you entered initially into that md5 hash generator page as your password for logging in. Thats the unhashed password.
thank you so much! i realize its the phpmyadmin. ill have to be more careful when im in a hurry;)
