I forgot my password
By Fazli
I forgot my user password. Trying to recover it using "Forgot password" link because the smtp settings of my elgg website doesn't work. It produces blue screen. I tried to use phpmyadmin on cpanel of the hosting service to change the password, but I couldn't find where the passwords are kept in. There shoul be something to recover my password, but I don't know how to do!
I need your help.

You must log in to post replies.1 - Let's find your user GUID using phpMyAdmin.
In elgg_metadata table search your admin's username, for example
column name - username
column value - admin
column entity_guid is your GUID
2 - Now you can change your password.
In elgg_metadata table search column name - password_hash for your entity_guid.
Edit value for this password_hash on:
Now your password is 123456
Thanks Nikolai
