Hello Slamriot,

You should edit the dir_admins table list which is set in the database. There is the “password” field. Its value is kept in md5 coding. Find required username and edit its password. If you fail, let us know, please.

Good luck

P.S. Please, do not hesitate to ask any questions.

Hey,

There is no username there. All I see is following:
Name varchar(50) latin1_swedish_ci No Browse distinct values Change Drop Primary Unique Index Fulltext
Password varchar(100) latin1_swedish_ci No Browse distinct values Change Drop Primary Unique Index Fulltext
Email varchar(60) latin1_swedish_ci No Browse distinct values Change Drop Primary Unique Index Fulltext
Type enum('1', '2') latin1_swedish_ci No 1
When I do click on passowrd it shows:
SELECT COUNT( * ) AS `Rows` , `Password`
FROM `dir_admins`
GROUP BY `Password`
ORDER BY `Password`
LIMIT 0 , 30
Please help

Nevermind. Once you log in using the default login and password, click the "Editors" link. There, you can change the password.

I feel dumb now.
