who change my admin password ?

  • [ Moderator note: Moved to How-To and Troubleshooting. ]

    Hello there ,

    I need to know if the is a way to know who changed the Admin user password in wordpress site?
    Actually , I received a message by email telling that there is someone changed the admin password , and there was a link to reset the password if that wasn’t me who changed the password .
    So , I just want to make sure no body is trying to hack my site .
    I tried to check the usermeta table in the wordpress database to see if the password was changed by another admin or it was changed by a guest , but I couldn’t find anything .
    can anybody help please .

    Sorry, but that info is not logged. There are plugins that will log things like that if you to add that functionality. What I’d do is look at your site’s access logs at the time the password change request was made to see if you can get anything from the IP address(es) involved.
