phpMyAdmin Life Saver: Change or Reset Password and Admin Name for WordPress — Sun, 29 Nov 2009 12:01:57 +0000

[...] There are moments in life that you might say "OOH SH$T! What was the password", I lost my WordPress admin name, I don’t remember it, I didn’t get the email with my password, etc. Well nothing to despair, the solution takes less than two minutes. To proceed you need to log in into your website control panel that most likely is provided by your web host, and most like you have phpMyAdmin too. In fact we need phpMyAdmin to put our hands into WordPress database and do modifications in there, but remember it is not a playground, a mistake and you can say bye bye to your blog. Just don’t wonder what the "drop" link might do, simply follow these few steps and you should bet alright. Just to be on the safe side, ALWAYS backup your database, if you have no clue how to do that just read my other tutorial. [...]

Cpanel + Fantastico + Wordpress + ‘plugin updating’ plugin = Blog happiness. Update with a few button pushes (in theory). Make a backup before you do so and save in an older version of SQL too in case your new host doesn’t support the latest.

[...] Re: Clone A Wordpress Blog – Best Way? There may be some software, I’m not sure. But it’s really not that hard. Keep all of your plugins/themes in a folder, upload them to the appropriate directories. As for the database, it can easily be imported/exported in PHPmyadmin. I can’t really explain every step here, but once you do it once or twice it’s pretty easy. Here’s what a quick Google search brought up… phpMyAdmin: Backup and Restore Wordpress Database [...]

Hey thanks for the info. I tried to copy my database from oner server to another, but got error messages. After I read your post i clicked the export option “add DROP TABLE” and it worked. So great job and nice videos too.
