Oops! Forgot Admin Email/Username

Hi @wheezer,

Greetings and thanks for posting on the forums.

Are you talking about hosted wordpress.com account or self hosted WordPress account by downloading it from www.ads-software.com?

See the difference between wordpress.com and www.ads-software.com here : https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

Have you forgotten both username and email address?

Kind Regards,
Vinod Dalvi

Thanks in advance,
Geet

sorry, but I failed to find navigation for creating a new topic. Can you please help?

Hi,

Beside the heading “How-To and Troubleshooting” there is a button Add New. You can use it to create new threads.

Thanks,

If you have forgotten both the user id AND the email id used (and you are using the self hosted WordPress version) then the only way to find out is to go in t he database and see the users table
