 * Apart from having to go back and reinstall WP from scratch, is there any way 
   for me to recover a login password?
 * Here’s the thing: I have no confirmation email after I set up my website. Spent
   several hours logged in last night updating information which has all gone through.
   Was going to go back in tonight to do more, but it tells me my password is wrong.
   I’ve tried resetting the password, but the link that I got emailed to me just
   takes me to a blank page.
 * I have no other options that I’m aware of. Is this something that I can fix through
   the config file? Do I need to re-download something? Or, do I have to completely
   reinstall a second time (which would suck but wouldn’t be the end of the world,
   necessarily…)?

 * If you have cPanel hosting, you may be able to access your dashboard directly
   from your cPanel account.
