Administrator password recovery
From Elxis Official Documentation
| For safety reasons it is not allowed for Super Administrators to reset their password using the Password Reminder form. Do so using a database manager such as phpMyAdmin and phpPgAdmin. |
this is the warning that elxis cms will print if you try to recovery administrator password through site's password reminder, so?
open your database manager and go to elxis database:
- Find db table elx_users, by default it will be listed with its prefix elx_users or with the prefix you added during installation progress, eg.: myprefix_users
- Go to the table row that contains the administrator information and open it for edit.
- Edit the field password clear any value and add this: e10adc3949ba59abbe56e057f20f883e which stands for 123456 , save it, from now on it will be the administrator's password!
Once done this you must immediately login your administrator area and set a strong password
