How to change or recover Joomla Administrator password
Wednesday, 20 June 2012

TeachmeJoomla provides you this online recovery tool. This helps you set a new Joomla password for administrator by running SQL code on the database.

This is the Joomla administrator password recovery form.

This generates the sql code to overwrite your Joomla password with a new password typed in this form.

You need to run the generated sql code in PHPMyAdmin or your favorite MySQL interface.

We do not save or give away these passwords.This is Javascript code and it runs on your own machine.

Any questions are welcome at teachme [at] teachmejoomla[dot] com. Enjoy!

New password:

Database prefix (taken from $mosConfig_dbprefix in configuration. php).

Usual values are 'jos_' for Joomla and 'mos_' for Mambo respectively, whithout the quotes:
