  • If you go to phpMyAdmin, look for wp_users or a variation of the name. When you find your username, click on the edit button.

    You should see something that says user_pass and yes, it will look like a string of characters. However that’s your encrypted password.

    Change the encrypted password to a plain-text password, and make sure to select MD5 on the dropdown, located to the left of the textbox. When you’re all set, click the go button on the phpMyAdmin page.

    Then when you login, you should be able to use the new password!

    Thanks Saukia
    Unfortunately this didn’t work for me. All user data records are displayed except for the admin account!? Anyway, thanks a lot for the tip.
    I would appreciate it if any of the users who sent me (emailed) paid offers to fix the problem could still share a possible solution.
    Thank you all ;))
