[resolved] Retrive admin password

Hi

I am using piwigo and have forgotten my admin password for the gallery. Is there a way of retrieving it?

Re: [resolved] Retrive admin password

The procedure below explains how to connect as a webmaster if the account it does not work (bad settings, hacks of all kinds etc.).
Access to the database will be necessary.

Solution (for a gallery where registration is open to all):

   1.
      register on your gallery with a new nickname (temporarily);
   2.
      Now go into your database;
   3.
      Make a backup of your database;
   4.
      In the table _user_infos change the status of your account temporarily. ---> "webmaster";
   5.
      You can log into your account with your temporary gallery and access now to the part of directors;
   6.
      Change the password of your main account webmaster;
   7.
      Reconnect with it;
   8.
      and delete the temporary user.

Thanks for the reply

I have followed your instructions:

1. Created a new user
2. in DB piwigo_user_infos table changed the status to webmaster
3. trying to login with this new user but receiving invalid password error!

Any ideas?
