Passwort vergessen

[*=left]"mysql -u root -p" (log in to MySQL)
[*=left]enter your mysql password
[*=left]"use (name-of-database)" (select WordPress database)
[*=left]"show tables;" (you're looking for a table name with "users" at the end)
[*=left]"SELECT ID, user_login, user_pass FROM (name-of-table-you-found)" (this gives you an idea of what's going on inside)
[*=left]"UPDATE (name-of-table-you-found) SET user_pass="(MD5-string-you-made)" WHERE ID = (id#-of-account-you-are-reseting-password-for)" (actually changes the password)
[*=left]"SELECT ID, user_login, user_pass FROM (name-of-table-you-found)" (confirm that it was changed)
[*=left](type Control-D, to exit mysql client)

[COLOR=#000000][FONT=sans-serif]Note if you have a recent version of MySQL (version 5.x?) you can have MySQL compute the MD5 hash for you.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[*=left]Skip step 1. above.
[*=left]Do the following for step 7. instead.

[*=left]"UPDATE (name-of-table-you-found) SET user_pass = MD5('"(new-password)"') WHERE ID = (id#-of-account-you-are-reseting-password-for)" (actually changes the password)

[COLOR=#000000][FONT=sans-serif]Note that even if the passwords are salted, meaning they look like $P$BLDJMdyBwegaCLE0GeDiGtC/mqXLzB0, you can still replace the password with an MD5 hash, and Wordpress will let you log in.[/FONT][/COLOR]

Using the Emergency Password Reset Script

Warnings

[*=left]It updates the administrator password and sends an email to the administrator's email address.
[*=left]If you don't receive the email, the password is still changed.
[*=left]You do not need to be logged in to use it. If you could login, you wouldn't need the script.
[*=left]Place this in the root of your WordPress installation. Do not upload this to your WordPress Plugins directory.
[*=left]Delete the script when you are done for security reasons.

Directions for use

[*=left]Copy the emergency script from Emergency Password Script and put into a file called emergency.php in the root of your WordPress installation (the same directory that contains wp-config.php).
[*=left]In your browser, open http://example.com/emergency.php.
[*=left]As instructed, enter the administrator username (usually admin) and the new password, then click Update Options. A message is displayed noting the changed password. An email is sent to the blog administrator with the changed password information.
[*=left]Delete emergency.php from your server when you are done. Do not leave it on your server as someone else could use it to change your password.
