  • have you tried ‘admin’ ?

    See here: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/166594
    Copy the code, save it as a PHP file, upload the file over FTP to the directory where the wp-config.php file is at.

    (The file assumes that you are the admin of the blog, with UID #1)

    Run the file in browser, if it says “you forgot to enter your email.”, add “[email protected]” at the end of the URL in the address bar. Then go ahead and use the “Forgot your password” feature in WordPress.

    If you can directly view your MySQL database (via phpMyAdmin or whatever you happen to use), the usernames are stored in the wp_users table, under “user_login”. Unlike the passwords, the usernames are not encrypted, so you can see all of them.

    BTW, this is not a direct WordPress admin function; you need access to your database. If you have cPanel, this is probably pretty easy to find. Click on the “MySQL databases” icon, and then at the very bottom of the page, click on the phpMyAdmin link.

    Don’t delete or change anything! In fact, this would probably be a good time to backup your database.

    heh, I figured I should ask, because that’s what it is for most people.

    It’s the wordpress default – unless they install via cpanel, or they’ve used phpmyadmin to change it manually…. in which case they usually don’t forget it ??

    i am lost my username and pasword,
    the cronologi lost (username and password) before i delete my email like a : [email protected] <<== this i delete and than i klik forward email in my cpanel. that email i change [email protected].
    BUT when i want login in my wordpres like a : https://www.yourdomain.com/blog/wp-admin <<== this is i can not enter to my administrator my wordpress.
    this is in my MYSQL :

    Connection Strings
    Perl $dbh = DBI->connect(“DBI:mysql:myusername_wrdp1:localhost”,”myusername_wrdp1″,”<PASSWORD HERE>”);
    PHP $dbh=mysql_connect (“localhost”, “myusername_wrdp1”, “<PASSWORD HERE>”) or die (‘I cannot connect to the database because: ‘ . mysql_error());
    mysql_select_db (“myusername_wrdp1”);

    maybe somebody can help my ?? ..
