Wordpress admin password recovery methods
Method 1 - Through FTP
There is also an easy way to reset your password via FTP, if you're using the admin user.
1. Login to your site via FTP and download your active theme's functions.php file.
2. Edit the file and add this code to it, right at the beginning, after the first
wp_set_password('password',1);
Put in your own new password for the main admin user. The "1" is the user ID number in the wp_users table.
3. Upload the modified file back to your site.
4. After you then are able to login, make sure to go back and remove that code. It will reset your password on every page load until you do.
