I noticed there was no forgot password link on the login page.

My hard drive crashed where I had the password to my clients CMS stored. I am able to access the site via FTP, however I don't have my account login details (only the username, not the password). Is there anyway to retrieve it, or overwrite it and make a new admin account?

I have someone doing data recovery on my computer but I need access to the site ASAP.

Thanks!

I've added the accountList.php file into my httpdocs folder. Before I added it I typed in my require section:

require_once "/cmsAdmin/lib/viewer_functions.php";

When I pull up my url/accountList.php it brings up a blank page.

the cmsAdmin folder is also within the httpdocs folder so I think that the path should be correct. Is there something I'm missing or something out of place?

Thanks.

Hi Fairbanks,

Try moving this line up to the top and removing the leading slash:

<?php require_once "cmsAdmin/lib/viewer_functions.php"; ?>

Let me know if that works for you.
