    since you are trying to change the password for the admin account in phpmyadmin you need to get the md5 hash for the password you want to use using a tool like this one: https://www.md5hashgenerator.com/

    @binarywc Alright, I’m on the website, so what do I do?

    type in the password you want then click submit…
    it will give you a hash near the top of the page that you need to copy into the password field of the wp admin users table for the account you want to login with.

    @binarywc Alright, so I just did that. I put in the username under the user_login column and the password under the user_pass column from the wpqj_users table. But when I put that username+pass into http://surveybths.tech/wp53/wp-login.php, it said that the password is incorrect.

    Does it take some time to update or something?

    Read my last post. I only said to point it under the password column. There’s not much else I can do to help at this juncture.

    When you change the username back
    You will use the password you entered in the website i linked to in other to get the secured hash, not the hash itself, into the password field on the login screen.

    @binarywc OK, let’s say I want my password to be “123Boy”. I type that in into the MD5 Hash Generator and I get my hash is 93cb13aa184a74deb1ec64f3ac0ccccb. OK, so now I go to wpqj_users => user_pass => I change the user_pass to 93cb13aa184a74deb1ec64f3ac0ccccb and hit enter. Then, I’ll go back to http://surveybths.tech/wp53/wp-login.php and log in with that username and password.

    Is that right? Thanks

    WordPress does hashing more than one pass to the plaintext password. If your wp-config.php don’t include any salt for additional level of encryption, you can try but the suggestion is simple if you can setup a new WordPress site and create new account, you can retrieve the password from there.

    @jameszen the op’s issue is likely a forgotten password and email issue with the server not sending the email out.

    @rbari314 sorry for the delay, yes that’s exactly what I’m saying to do.
