Lost user/pass/email to WP

Posted on July 1, 2021

I don’t have that info anymore and the Webmaster who took care of it is not in touch. Can I use my Plesk to change the user/pass or see what email it’s going to?

If so, how?

If not, what can I do?

Thank you!!

Hello,

You can easily recover your WordPress password by accessing the admin area login page and click the “Lost your password?” link. You can then enter either your Username or Email Address to receive the new password.

The other option is the reset the password from the WordPress database directly. If the above option is not working for you, please check this question in the community:

Let me know how it goes. Regards, Alex
