How to Reset WordPress Admin Password From cPanel

We often forget the admin login password of the WordPress site. In today’s post I will show you how to reset WordPress admin login password from hosting panel (cpanel).

So let’s start without further ado.

First login to your hosting cPanel and Go to cPanel > Databases section > phpMyAdmin:

Select the database in question, table wp-users and click on Edit next to the admin user:

On the next page, type in your new strong password into the user_pass box, select MD5 in the Function column and click Go:

Now enter the new password you want to set in the box on the right side of user_pass and select MD5 from the drop down to its left. Then click on Go.

Congratulations! You successfully reset your WordPress site user password. You can now go back to the WordPress dashboard page and try to log in with the new password.

That’s it!
