WordPress password reset utility
-
I just thought this might be useful to some other people out there. I lost my WordPress passwords, and wanted an easy way of resetting them. I made a quick & dirty PHP script that can do it. Here is the code
Simply copy this code and paste it into a file named whatever.php and throw it in your root WordPress directly(in the same directory as wp-config.php). Then load it up in your browser, type in your username and the new password you want to use, hit submit, and you’re done.
The most important step is the last. DELETE THE FILE. If you leave it there, anyone can reset your passwords to whatever they want.
