Generate WordPress password hashes, reset forgotten passwords, and recover WordPress admin access
This tool helps you generate a new WordPress password hash when you've lost access to your WordPress admin account. While WordPress MD5 hashes cannot be directly decrypted, you can create a new password and update it in your database.
Replace your_user_name or your_email_address with your actual WordPress credentials. The wp_table prefix may vary based on your WordPress installation. (Check your prefix in wp-config.php in $table_prefix this variable)
Important: Modifying your WordPress database directly should be your last resort. Always create a backup before making changes.
wp_users table (note: the prefix might be different if you changed it during installation e.g:- yourPrefix_users)user_pass field with the generated hashThe SQL queries generated above can be used directly in your database management tool. Simply copy the appropriate query (by username or email), replace the placeholder with your actual username or email address, and execute it.
WordPress stores passwords as one-way MD5 hashes for security reasons. This means that even if someone gains access to your database, they can't retrieve your actual password. When you enter your password to log in, WordPress encrypts it using the same algorithm and compares the result with the stored hash.
This is why we can't directly decrypt WordPress password hashes. Instead, this tool helps you create a new password hash that you can use to replace the existing one in your database.
Note: After you've regained access to your WordPress admin panel, it's recommended to update your user profile information and consider changing your password again through the WordPress interface.
