    Hello! How can I disable the Salt option without logging in to WordPress (I can’t log in), for example, via phpMyAdmin? I’m grateful for any guidance.

    Hi @laptopfrog

    If the salt option is enabled generally it should allow to login.

    If you want to change the option using phpMyAdmin

    try run below query in database aio_wp_security_configs the option will have aiowps_enable_salt_postfix set it to 0

    SELECT * FROM wp_options WHERE option_name LIKE '%aio%'

    Thank you @hjogiupdraftplus.

    Hello! Pressed the button to turn on the salt. The admin panel is now unavailable. I removed the plugin and cleaned the database. Reinstalled the plugin. As soon as I activated the plugin, the admin panel disappeared again. Please help me turn off the salt.

    Why doesn’t the admin panel work after turning on salt?

    Explain, please, for dummies – how and where to turn off the salt? (not via database)

    Hi @worldsov

    If you have enable salt postfix it should logout you once and you have to login again.

    Here salt postfix adds extra chars to salt to save password in database so it increases the security.

    Sorry there is right now not direct way to disable salt.

    If admin panel disappeared means you logged out and you should login again or some thing else like showing 403 forbidden or 500 error ?

    Regards
