    I am unable to log into one of my sites. It continues to not accept my password so I hit “forgot password” and was e-mailed a link to reset the password and the link doesn’t work. Very frustrating.Any advice?

    do you use a hosting or wordpress.com ? if you use a web hosting, you can access the database then edit the password from there. don’t forget to generate password md5.

    I have no idea what that means md5? I am not very educated at working in the back end of things

    This article may help you.

    It contains methods to reset your password that do not require working access to the WordPress dashboard. It does require database access or file access to you web server.
