Wordpress Login

[andrewbluespark]

We have a blog on our page that is updated through FishPig wordpress.

The person who set this up and had the wordpress login details is no longer with the company so we cannot recover the wordpress username or password.

Can anyone advise if and how these can be recovered please?

Magento ver 1.9.2.2

Thanks

Hi Andrew, 

The issue is with wordpress itself and not Magento you will need someone with some level of access to your server/hosting setup in order to do the following:

https://codex.wordpress.org/Resetting_Your_Password

As well, once the password is reset you will need to update the fishpigs credentials. 

PSA: In my experience if you are using fishpig and have wordpress installed side by side with Magento you are exposing yourself to some serious security breaches; something to consider moving forward

There are several ways to get back to the admin login details, if you have access to the cPanel or if you have the access to phpMyAdmin.

Using phpMyAdmin you can create an administrative account and its password.
