Thank you so much. Lots of pages are giving the instruction but none of them actually tell you to put MD5 before entering the password.

Hi, Good tutorial there & im not trying to knock it but..surely if you lose your admin area password it much easier to just click Forgot your Password from your web page login form, enter your sites registered admin email address & then just reset you password? 15 seconds & your done!

Many times people are using this for disaster recovery, and they might not even know the admin email address, or there might not be working smtp settings etc etc. Hence why this topic is a highly searched upon one

Hehe, well I suppose the good news is that you can now refer them to this tutorial. Do enough of these, Norm, and you may never need to answer another question in your life!

[michaelheins]

Sounds as if you were in a hurry, Norm. Was the kettle boiling? ^_^

As always, your tutorials are thorough and logical. They have been a huge help to me. Many thanks!

Actually it was done a little while ago after I was asked for about the 10 time in a week how to do this. ;)
