Changing WP password in database

How is this done?

The lost password link on the login page doesn't seem to send a new password to my email.

 

I can do this for you in $10 if you provide me the access details that is cpanel and db access

50% advance

lol, i sold the site for $10.

i asked on the forum to get free advice

what do I change in the SQL file?

 

lol you never mentioned that you want a free advice

Look for password field in database simple

But be carefull as the passsword can be encrypted

what is a forum for? This is not the B/S/T section...

 

Just login to the Cpanel and click on PHPmyadmin and then

1. select the database you have for WP
2. when rows displays select the "user" to browse
3. click on edit the row and change your password

its easy... hope it helps

 

Thanks for the help.

I edited the user_pass for the user_login "admin" but that didnt work.

Something I could be doing wrong?

 

have you browse the row... "wp_user" ?? in that only you will find the admin

 

Yes, in the wp_user table I edited the user_pass for the admin, but that didnt work.

 

I followed this tutorial and it worked http://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/phpmyadmin/

You need to change the function value for user_pass as well.

 

now as you can also rename the email id and then click on the forget password and see the email is sent out... or not because i think the password be in encrypt mode...
