I was hoping to follow this tutorial. It seems fairly straightforward:
https://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/create-a-wordpress-admin-user-for-a-wordpress-site-via-mysql-6649
Honestly, if I come out of this with one admin account and none of the thousands of other “users” (a.k.a. spammers), I’ll be a happy camper!
Cheers, Jim
Hi Mendel,
Quick question: If I don’t want all of the users data back, but I only want to get access to the site, could I simply add an admin user to the database via MySQL?
Cheers, Jim
OK, I’ll give it a try. Thanks!
Hi Mendel,
And thanks for the quick response.
I tried using both the /wp-admin and wp-login.php paths, I received an “invalid username” response for both.
I also clicked “Lost your password?”. I tried my user name and both my registered emails. I received an “Invalid username or e-mail” each time.
Cheers, Jim
