hi,
i ve installed wordpress through hestia all hassle free. and i ve been using my wpadmin page without a problem. after i forgot my wp admin password, i went through the phpadmin and changed password through it: made sure it was md5 double checked all the instrucions but no avail.
i ve tried changing through wp cli on ubuntu terminal but icannot find wordpress database since i ve used hestiacp.
can someone help me out on how to change the password of my wpadmin. i m locked out of the site… thanks in advance
edit:
i have tried
1- forgot my password- send the mail : didnt get the mail
2-changing through phpadmin : changed password doesnt work
3- disabled plugings, themes through hestiacp. no avail…
i ve access to wp-config.php. i found all related info. i ve tried adding a new user over phpmyadmin. no avail… i will try to do a clean install of the web page… thanks for the help
ok. i think i found the culprit. disabled all plugins and after that i managed to create a new user. and change password for current admin. but the new problem is, i cannot change anything with my admin: somehow all the permissions got scr-wd… everywhere i clikc on dashboard : access denied…
if any one have any idea . will really really appreciate…
ok. note for the future newbies like me…
my site got hacked. so the reason i cannot access and made changes to my dashboard was hacking… so be careful what pluging you use…
thanks everyone
iwill try to solve this problem now :))
