 * Hi, all
 * My host screwed up my server migration, so now I have a couple of plugins that
   don’t work properly.
   The only thing I can see that’s wrong is that I have a different
   database password in my wp-config.php file than in mySQL in hPanel (the host’s
   cPanel).If I change either of them to match the other, I’m then locked out of
   WP Admin.This seems to be very unusual, as I can’t find any mention on Google
   of a fix!Any ideas, anyone?

 * This sounds really strange, but only the support of your hoster can clarify this,
   as it is their system that provides the access data.

 * Okay, thanks.
 * They’ve not been very helpful so far, but if there’s no way I can fix it myself(
   and as it wasn’t me who created the issue), then I’ll give them another try.
