1quicksi Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 Depends on how you were protecting the admin panel. .htaccess/.htpassword you will need to edit the file. IF you used crypt you wil need to enter a new one. Some of the contributions use the config file to store the information. Also I would imagine a few use a database table which you would ened to have access to phpMyAdmin to view or a command line to MySQL. knowledge base | Contributions | Search Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aodhan Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 Hello, ? ? ? I lost my password to the admin panel my shopping cart.? Is there a was that I can reset or change it without deleting and re-installing my cart.? Please help. Use something like phpMyAdmin to directly edit the database field, or if you have root access to the box you can change it that way as well through the command line. UPDATE admin SET admin_password=PASSWORD('newpassword') WHERE admin_name='yourusername'; Aodhan P.S. This is assuming you were using the administrators mod...oops. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fredfillah Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 Try deleting the encrypted passwd (everything after the ":"). Then log in without a passwd. That should do it. -Fred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
